Arbitrary Tales

By Daniel Borzutzky

Subjects: Short stories, American short stories, Jewish American authors, Chilean American authors, Hispanic American authors

Description: In the tradition of Ben Marcus, Matthew Derby, and David Ohle, Daniel Borzutzky's fictions mine the fables that comprise our understanding of ourselves: the tales that are woven up so intricately with us we cannot tell where we begin and our histories end. He turns these stories inside out and makes them new. He frees us from them so we can weave them back again.
