– Holy Days In The Sun:
A collection of short stories for the 99% who scrape by paycheck-to-paycheck, trying to hang onto their souls while suffering the indignities of the Neoliberal Way of Life. Tales of alienation, family dysfunction, workplace frustration and our lonely 12 Steps through everyday life are told by a sardonic narrator determined to answer the eternal questions: who am I, and is there any remedy? With bleak humor, these spare stories navigate our modern landscape of decline: casinos, corporate offices, county jails, council flats, parking lots and Victoria’s Secret. Call it Literature for the estranged or Dollar Tree Kierkegaard, this is a collection that should hold particular appeal for those readers who feel themselves strangers or pilgrims on earth.
– The Unbearable Ugliness Of Being:
New short stories from Henry L. Racicot, author of Holy Days In The Sun. This collection features similar bleak humor and characters struggling with the indignities of their imaginary middle class existence. Set in the forlorn landscape of declining America, this new volume is grittier and edgier, focusing a darker lens on the downfall that dropped man from the perfection of Eden to the gutter of purely human existence, a catastrophe played out in the day-to-day grind of the failed experiment known as civilization. From the absurdity of the coronavirus lockdown to the reckoning of a hospital deathbed, with detours through meaningless work places, fast food restaurants, internet shaming and the problematic nature of human relationships, these are stories of broken people missing the mark. Reality, in other words.
