The volume brings together stories by T. C. Boyle in which black humour and the absurd run through everyday and unusual scenes: a primate researcher falls in love with a chimpanzee, a hippie commune receives a rain of blood, and a Nordic poet tries to overcome his creative block. Agile prose, eccentric characters and dilemmas of the human condition.
