Maybe Mermaids & Robots are Lonely

(Fiction) Maybe mermaids and robots are lonely. Maybe stargazing dinosaurs escape extinction, and 80s icons share their secrets and scams. A boardwalk Elvis impersonator declines in a Graceland of his own, Bigfoot works as a temp, families fall apart and come back together. This wild and vibrant collection of explorer's tales will take you from fabulist faraway worlds to Great Recession realism in a single breath.

"There's a sense of aspiration throughout this book, stamped on the opening title story. It fuses the otherworldly with the familiar, the mermaid and robot who can hope for enduring love just like humans...Energetic stories unveil limitless possibilities always within reach."—Kirkus Starred Review
