Fiction. Short stories. The author of the acclaimed transgressive
cult classic DEAR DEAD PERSON, also available from SPD, returns
with this long-awaited second collection of brilliantly written,
outrageously imaginative and comedic short stories. Benjamin
Weissman is one of the true originals in contemporary American
fiction. In HEADLESS, he turns his daredevil wit and fearless
storytelling gifts on subjects ranging from Hitler's secret life as
a skier to the philosophical musings of identical twin porn stars
to the travails of the world's most sitcom-defying family.
Weissman's dysfunctional, hilarious, and strangely moving tales of
life in contemporary America are a real and unique treasure.
"HEADLESS is at play with the world. It is fearless, fun, and
sometimes filthy. Weissman invites you into an alphabet soup of
delight in language. Eat up"--Alice Sebold.
