Description

The author of the acclaimed transgressive cult classic Dear Dead Person returns with this long-awaited second collection of brilliantly written, outrageously imaginative and comedic short stories. In Headless, Weissman turns his daredevil wit and fearless storytelling gifts on subjects ranging from Hitler's secret life as a skier to the philosophical musings of identical twin porn stars to the travails of the world's most sitcom defying family.

Reviews

"Bizarre, inventive, and surprising, Weissman's stories frolic in the murkier regions of our psyches and daily habits with skilled verbal turns and unflinching wit."

-- Lydia Davis, author of "Almost No Memory"
