Jonathan Carroll (born in 1949) is an American fiction writer primarily known for novels that might best be termed 'magic realism', 'slipstream' or 'contemporary fantasy'. He has lived in Austria since 1974. His tales are often told by unreliable narrators in a world where the fantastic is viewed as natural. Jonathan Carroll is a remarkable author. His works are beautifully written and his plots are exciting and unique as all get-out, simultaneously whimsical and devastating, with fully drawn intriguing characters in extraordinary situations. In this novel, Max is a cartoonist who is gun shy about romance until he meets Lily, a fascinating single mother who reciprocates his love. Max is loved and accepted by Lily and her son Lincoln, and they're incredibly happy. Then Max finds out something terrible about Lily, and from the moment he makes his decision about how to react to this news, he sets all their lives on a course that may well end in tragedy. There are few fantastical elements in this novel; unlike many of Carroll's other works, this is pretty straightforward, and calls attention to his seamless writing, natural dialogue and deep characterizations. ; Large 8vo 9" - 10" tall; 244 pages.

Harmony Korine burst on the scene with Kids, a film so gritty and unsettling in its depiction of teen life that it was slapped with an NC-17 rating and banned in some theaters across the country. In some ways, the media frenzy over the rating overshadowed the harrowing portrait of teenagers destroying their lives and the then twenty-one-year-old screenwriter who created them. In this first book of fictional set pieces, Korine captures the fragmented moments of a life observed through the demented lens of media, TV, and teen obsession. Korine reinvents the novel in this highly experimental montage of scenes that seem both real and surreal at the same time. With a filmmaker's eye and a prankster's glee, this bizarre collection of jokes, half-remembered scenes, dialogue fragments, movie ideas, and suicide notes is an episodic, epigrammatic lovesong to the world of images. Korine is the voice of his media-savvy generation and A Crack-Up at the Race Riots is the satiric lovechild of his dark imagination. ; Large 8vo 9" - 10" tall; 175 pages.
