The Penult: Stories and novellas

A man reaches for his earthquake helmet. A graduate student unleashes armageddon with a crystal. A woman breaks up with her shrinking boyfriend. My son disowned me for wearing a colorful jacket to his wedding. There is a problem with boyfriend. This is a tour of the grotesque and impossible, a collection of hysterical, absurdist stories capped with two cruel little novellas, experiments in high adventure on a strange parallel plane.
