The Story Until Now Hardback
by Kit Reed
Hardback
Description
Called "one of our brightest cultural commentators" by Publishers Weekly, Kit Reed draws from life-with a difference.
This new collection brings together thirty-four of her strong, original stories, from early classics like "The Wait" and "Winter" to six never-before-collected short stories, including "The Legend of Troop 13" and "Wherein We Enter the Museum." An early favorite, "Automatic Tiger," is the first in a series of Reed's stories about animals.
There's a monkey who grinds out bestsellers with the help of a "creative writing" app.
Her uncanny black dog can enter a crowded room and sit down at the feet of the next man to die.
Her characters confront war in various arenas: mother/daughter battles, the war of the sexes, the struggles of men scarred by war.
Kit Reed's self-described "transgenred" fiction is confirmation of an "extraordinary talent" (The Financial Times).
The range and complexity of her work speaks for itself in The Story Until Now.
