From a writer Steve Almond calls “the master of the down and out that just got
worse” comes a collection of stories that live vividly in the reader’s memory
long after the final page has been turned. Taking place in a world of desperate
people who cling to hope, but have few expectations, Roberge introduces us to a
motley crew of cripples, drug addicts, former child actors, chimpanzee boxers,
exterminators, and assorted criminals. These desperate, boldly original stories
are distinguished by a stark prose reminiscent of Denis Johnson or Lorrie Moore,
but are, ultimately, all their own—powerful, riveting, deeply felt, and darkly
funny.
