The Suffering of Lesser Mammals by Greg Sanders

The Suffering of Lesser Mammals by Greg Sanders

In The Suffering of Lesser Mammals, acclaimed author Greg Sanders draws the reader into a world of believable absurdity, as individual crises meld with those of the age. Among the thirteen stories in this collection, a young father's anxiety throws the Earth out of orbit; a bachelor breaks up with his car; a multivariate correlator conjures a lonely deity; two sisters are abducted by a cadre of immortal alewives. Wildly inventive, morally wise, and achingly funny, this is the short story as reimagined by a fearless-and fearsome-voice.

Greg Sanders lives in the East Village and earns his living as a technical writer. His short stories have appeared in Mississippi Review, Epiphany Magazine, Pindeldyboz, Essays & Fictions, Opium Magazine, two fiction anthologies published by Red Hen Press, and a number of other publications, both print and on line. He is currently at work on a novel, a second collection of short stories, and other creative projects.
