"As weird as they are elegant, as delicious as they are unsettling, these fables place Ch'teaureynaud in the secret brotherhood that has only exemplars, no definition: Kafka, Bruno Schulz, Nathanael West, Aimee Bender. We are lucky indeed to have them, in a very skilled translation." --John Crowley ( Little, Big ) "These 22 curious tales verging on the perverse will strike new English readers of Ch'teaureynaud's work as a wonderful find. Beautiful prose featuring ingenuous protagonists and clever, unexpected forays into horror are the hallmarks of these mischievous stories." -- Publishers Weekly, "As weird as they are elegant, as delicious as they are unsettling, these fables place Chateaureynaud in the secret brotherhood that has only exemplars, no definition: Kafka, Bruno Schulz, Nathanael West, Aimee Bender.

Synopsis
The celebrated career of Georges-Olivier Ch teaureynaud is well known to readers of French literature. This comprehensive collection--the first to be translated into English--introduces a distinct and dynamic voice to the Anglophone world. In many ways, Ch teaureynaud is France's own Kurt Vonnegut, and his stories are as familiar as they are fantastic. A Life on Paper presents characters who struggle to communicate across the boundaries of the living and the dead, the past and the present, the real and the more-than-real. A young husband struggles with self-doubt and an ungainly set of angel wings in "Icarus Saved from the Skies," even as his wife encourages him to embrace his transformation. In the title story, a father's obsession with his daughter leads him to keep her life captured in 93,284 unchanging photographs. While Ch teaureynaud's stories examine the diffidence and cruelty we are sometimes capable of, they also highlight the humanity in the strangest of us and our deep appreciation for the mysterious. Georges-Olivier Ch teaureynaud is the author of eight novels and almost one hundred short stories, and he is a recipient of the prestigious Prix Renaudot and the Bourse Goncourt de la nouvelle. His work has been translated into twelve languages. Edward Gauvin has published Ch teaureynaud's work in AGNI Online , Conjunctions , Words Without Borders , The Caf Irreal , and The Brooklyn Rail . The recipient of a residency from the Banff International Literary Translation Centre, he translates graphic novels for Tokyopop, First Second Books, and Archaia Studios Press., A comprehensive introduction to the short stories of renowned French fabulist Georges-Olivier Ch'teaureynaud., The celebrated career of Georges-Olivier Chateaureynaud is well known to readers of French literature.
