Synopsis
"[A] playful melange of erotic black comedy and domestic pathos, dysfunctional families and all-too-functional men, dictators and lumberjacks. Weissman is an expert juggler of tone . . ." --Los Angeles Times
"[S]urprising, rollicking and clever . . . What makes these stories exciting . . . is Weissman's zesty, original use of language and his unflinching approach to describing human truths, especially the awkward, bizarre or undesirable ones . . . [T]ruly original stories." --Publishers Weekly
The author of the acclaimed transgressive cult classic Dear Dead Person returns with this long awaited second collection of brilliantly written, outrageously imaginative and comedic short stories. Benjamin Weissman is one of the true originals in contemporary American fiction. In Headless, he turns his daredevil wit and fearless storytelling gifts on subjects ranging from Hitler's secret life as a skier to the philosophical musings of identical twin porn stars to the travails of the world's most sitcom-defying family. Weissman's dysfunctional, hilarious, and strangely moving tales of life in contemporary America are a real and unique treasure.
