Description

Dancing On Fly Ash contains over sixty stories, each one shorter than one hundred words, ranging in tone from humor to drama, from gritty reality to absurd surrealism. Inside, a celebrity plane crash is picked over by grave-robbing memorabilia hunters. Image consultants dispense career advice to both Keanu Reeves and the President of the United States. Lawyers are purchased in pet stores and retirees crowded into prisons. A lottery ticket holds one woman's only chance for salvation, while elsewhere a long-lost husband pretends to need directions to a home he never should have left. One child becomes a cyborg to facilitate a divorce as another tortures sunflowers for their secrets.
