Críticas:

Nathaniel Tower, author of Nagging Wives, Foolish Husbands, says "With Not Quite So Stories, there's no need to suspend disbelief. David S. Atkinson makes the absurd 100% believable. These stories are hilarious and real. Atkinson is on his way to becoming the master of absurdity."

A volume offers daft—and oftentimes deft—madcap short fiction. — Kirkus Review

Reseña del editor:

Life is absurd, ultimately beyond our comprehension, in [some awesome accomplishment] David Atkinson's latest short story collection Not Quite So Stories. Themes of adolescence, marriage, work, and death intersect in stories that will leave the reader at times amused, sorrowful, pensive, hopeful, and marveling at the bizarre things that make people tick.
