Short Mean Fiction by William Dunlap (Signed Copy)

Like tales from the Old Testament, these stories are mean, rampant with sex, violence, and death. All are figments of an active, if not fertile, imagination, and brevity may be their greatest charm. They are fictions through and through. The drawings scattered throughout this volume are not illustrations, but live in the same place the sketchbooks where Dunlap first wrote the stories, forgot them, then found them again.

“These are totally original, involving, and deeply moving slices
of life that have stayed with me since I first read them. The characters
jump off the page and into the subconscious.”

Billy Friedkin, Academy Award-winning director of
The French Connection, The Exorcist, Rules of Engagement

“William Dunlap goes straight for the jugular. These brilliant, terrifying,
and often very funny stories are filled with surprises as he
examines the human condition in all its manifestations and then some.”

Lee Smith, Author of Family Linen and Good Old Girls
