Fiction. Critically acclaimed books Dark Rides and Wishbook are
collected in a single volume in GRAB BAG, a selection of editor
Dennis Cooper's "Little House on the Bowery" series. Dark Rides,
the first book in GRAB BAG, tells the story of Derek, a gay
teenager looking for love in carnivals, honky tonks, and hospitals.
Wish Book, the second book, focuses on a small city swarming with
con men, hucksters, and spiritualists during the Great Depression.
Though Derek McCormack has been nominated for a Toronto Book Award
and a National Magazine Award in Canada, GRAB BAG is his first
release in the United States. "Anyone interested in the more
wicked, crafty and inventive forms of Canadian writing should be
well advised to spend time with McCormack"--Toronto Star.
