New Book Review: “Stories for Nighttime and Some for the Day” by Ben Loory

My Ben Loory review is up at The Collagist:

It is never suggested that the forces—monster, UFO, invisible crown, and death himself—do not exist, but their reality doesn’t make the people who encounter them any more sane.

It’s a secret pleasure to get to read a good book before everyone else can. Thanks to editor Gabriel Blackwell for working with me on the piece. Here’s another review of it by Kevin McFarland at AV Club. If you’re interested in Loory’s book, you can buy it at–among other places–Starbucks.
