2015 RELEASES
The Balloon Containing the Water Containing the Narrative Begins Leaking
RICH IVES Short Fiction. Rich Ives’ latest book is full of exquisitely worded stories. He’s a master at detailed description, but also in creating narrative from small, well-chosen moments that add up to an emotional connection... His prose is precise, almost crystalline, sharp and illuminating. ––Anita Endrezze, author of Butterfly Moon (Univ. of Arizona Press, 2012) and A Thousand Branches (Red Bird Press, 2014) |

Earth Still
ANNETTE LEDDY Playful and slyly original, Earth Still tells the story of Patricia, a museum curator and the mother of a young son, who falls for a new neighbor, Rennie, in the afternoon of an alien spaceship's unexplained landing in present day Los Angeles. |
The Shortest Farewells Are the Best
CHUCK ROSENTHAL & GAIL WRONSKY The Shortest Farewells Are the Best is a clever and hilarious tour de force. With lines culled from dozens of noir films ranging from the famous to the obscure, Chuck Rosenthal and Gail Wronsky have fashioned a brilliant literary collage that is as entertaining as it is thought provoking. I haven’t the foggiest notion of how they came up with the idea for this book, but I’m certainly glad their off-kilter muse paid them a visit. —Tom Hazuka, editor of Flash Fiction Funny |
