| 520 | |a "A.G. Pasquella's Welcome to the Weird America brings together three of his brilliant, fabulist novellas, each of which is filled with strange language and extraordinary surprises. In "Why Not a Spider Monkey Jesus?," written like a comic-book adventure without the images, a talking chimpanzee becomes a televangelist. In "NewTown," the author's love letter to science fiction, a teenage boy named Sammy joins a motley band of rebels intent on overthrowing the bungling admiral of a huge spaceship. And in "The This & the That," Pasquella takes us back to the old weird America, an America of hucksters and hobos, cartoons and carnivals. From questions about money and God, to environmental collapse, to the intersection of humanity and technology, A.G. Pasquella tackles complex subjects with beautifully surreal prose and a deep delight in the tradition of weird fiction. These mesmerizing, upending stories will have readers setting off on a fascinating journey down an unknown road with no destination, or end, in sight."-- |c Provided by publisher. | ||
