Planet Grim Stories
by Alex Behr
In twenty-eight stories that draw blood while making you laugh, Alex Behr’s debut collection PLANET GRIM is a vivid, unsettling portrait of the gritty fringes of San Francisco and Portland, where complicated characters long for connection just out of reach. Behr is an idiosyncratic, unpredictable prose stylist with an edge and willingness to cut to the bone that makes her writing truly original.
