Fiction
A student's suicide note is not what it seems. A high-school
football rivalry turns absurd-and deadly. A much-loved cat
seems to have been a different animal all along. A pair of
identical twins aren't identical at all - or even related. A
man finds his own yellowed birth announcement inside a
bureau bought at auction. Set in a small American town, told
in a conversational style, Pieces for the Left Hand is a
stream of a hundred anecdotes, none much longer than a page. At once funny, bizarre, familiar and disturbing, these
deceptively straightforward tales nevertheless shock and
amaze through uncanny coincidence, tragic misunderstanding,
strange occurrence, or sudden insight. Unposted letters,
unexpected visitors, false memories - in Pieces for the Left
Hand, these are the things that decide our fate. Wry and
deadpan, powerful and philosophical, these addictive little
fables reveal the everyday world as a strange and eerle place.
