MAY WE SHED THESE HUMAN BODIES
"Sparks’s debut story collection swirls with a Tim Burton-like whimsy… modern fables in which epiphanies replace moral lessons and tales unfold with Grimm-like wickedness."
- Publishers Weekly
May We Shed These Human Bodies peers through vast spaces and skies with the world's most powerful telescope to find humanity: wild and bright and hard as diamonds. A whole sideshow's worth of heartbreaking oddballs and freaks.
