{"product_id":"9781772140477","title":"Jettison","description":"Nathaniel G. Moore follows up his 2014 ReLit Award win for Savage with a diverse collection of short fiction, his first, Jettison, featuring stories which dangle somewhere between horror and romance.  \"Jaws\" explores a father's desire to over-share the erotic origins of his children's \"Aunt\" Louise; \"Blade Runner\" uncovers the darkest and most hilarious aspects of dating by delineating the psych ward politics surrounding a male mental patient with five girlfriends who takes apart his bed when they visit; in \"A Higher Power,\" readers are introduced to a brave woman in recovery who shares a story about a time when all she could think about was Prime Minister Paul Martin and would do anything to crash charity dance-a-thons he might be attending; in \"Son of Zodiac,\" Moore captures the ache of a life-spanning meltdown in the painfully polite confessions of a man who believes his father was the Zodiac Killer. Be grateful as you witness a portrait of vulgar torment when a young woman is given an English professor action figure for Christmas (\"Professor Buggles\").   Each of these stories is an all-inclusive getaway to hilarity and emotional atonement. Jettison is an all-you-can-eat buffet of literary invention: you'll be so glad you got an invite.   Praise for Jettison: \"wickedly fun to read\" (Winnipeg Free Press)","brand":"Anvil Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":65434425688413,"sku":null,"price":11.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/3893\/2573\/files\/9781772140477.jpg?v=1789285807","url":"https:\/\/shop.gazellebookservices.co.uk\/products\/9781772140477","provider":"Gazelle Book Services","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
