Surrounded by Water
"Stefanie Freele's fiction offers the thrill of discovering details sure to be overlooked by a less alert eye. Her characters take control of their lives by insisting - as their author does - that each moment matters, and can become something resonant and moving and strange in the very best way. Read these rare stories, and you will learn all over again how to look." - Steve Himmer, author of The Bee-Loud Glade, Editor Necessary Fiction
Feeding Strays
A woman hides from her husband in a fish tank and another absently bakes sponges inside her tarts. Appliances drop from the sky, men grapple with chainsaws, women struggle with hormonal violence, and abandoned boys beg on doorsteps. Enter into the territory of broken people and the folks that love them. Sensitive and unruly, sincere and absurd, Stefanie Freele's Feeding Strays is a collection of fifty short stories, both slipstream and modern, about children, family, relationships, and oysters.

Discouraged, he nonetheless forges ahead through this academic wasteland where officious cowboys manage the college, the faculty is lackluster, and the students unimaginative. College student Kristina Day, daughter of board chair Christian Day and sole heir to the Hawke agricultural empire, admires the monkish professor who has opened her eyes to a vast world beyond the confines of her rural homeland.

What Came Before
"What Came Before is a remarkable achievement a smart, fast-paced mystery that asks important questions about identity, family, and race. And, like the best of its genre, itOs loaded with puzzles: What really happened on the day Abbie PalmerOs mother killed herself? Who is the mysterious woman who shows up on AbbieOs doorstep, and why would anyone want her dead? Gay DeganiOs prose is at all times lucid and compelling, and her exciting story will keep you glued to your chair." Clifford Garstang, winner of the 2013 Library of Virginia Award for Fiction for 'What the Zhang Boys Know' "With engaging characters and a compelling mystery, Gay DeganiOs What Came Before draws you in and doesnOt let go. If this had been a movie, I wouldnOt have left the cinema for more popcorn. A brilliant and complex whodunit with a memorable, imperfect character at its helm." Christopher Allen, author of 'Conversations with S. Teri OOType (a Satire)'

Including such authors as Rene Denfeld, Justin Hocking, Leni Zumas, and Kevin Sampsell, editor Gigi Little has curated a collection that is quirky, chilling, often profound—and always perfectly weird.
