Please fire me. Today, I sent an email to my boss explaining a great idea I had on what we could do differently on our weekly reporting. Moments after I sent it, I heard a huge bellow of laughter from her office. The idea was never mentioned again . . .

When I inquired about them, she stated that the dog had the puppies in her bed and she still hadn’t cleaned up the afterbirth, yet she was still sleeping there.

My review of QUIET CREATURE ON THE CORNER by João Gilberto Noll is a disturbing & lovely tale of anomie published by Two Lines Press. It's the author's first English translation, done by the clearly very talented Adam Morris.

 

The book is on sale at the publisher's website for $6.95. It's so very worth that minimal price!
