Derek Updegraff's latest collection of fifteen short stories, Pup!
Et cetera, continues his exploration of fictional characters whose
lives are fascinating and completely unexpected. Take, for example,
the wife who cartwheels and backflips in the living room or the two
men in Husky who hug and sob and console one another. Consider the
man who holds a bag of ice between his hands because he's the poor
bastard who grabbed the hot potato. There is, in this book, a pulse
of familiarity in all the strangeness, something to cling to as
sirens rage louder and louder, and One walks to the door and says,
"Come. Let's make more rock piles instead.
In Derek Updegraffs's newest collection, Paintings that Look Like
Things, the world is bared on a canvas of past and present where
serpents burrow in dens of sorrow, and love boils in a pot on the
stove.
Derek Updegraff's short story collection titled The Butcher's Tale
is a compilation of twelve stories that give a small glimpse into
the lives of fictional characters whose stories and personalities
are based around adventure, love, wonderment, faith, and life.
