John Darnielle recommends
Small Town Sins (2023)
Ken Jaworowski
"Imagine my delight at this wonderful little book, this riotous cross-section of John Irving and Jim Thompson. These characters breathe the same air other people breathe, they work jobs like real people do. An addictive read from its first page, Small Town Sins pays the reader's attention back with love. A crime book that kept surprising me with its warmth and vigor page after page-it's a delight, well-told and deeply felt."
Go Back at Once (2022)
Robert Aickman
"His name should be placed among the greats-Flannery O'Connor, Irwin Shaw, Raymond Carver . . . You will never forget the first Aickman story you read, nor be satisfied when you've read them all."
