Come Kill Me!

A desperate mother embarks on a chaotic crime-laden road trip in search of her missing transgendered son... A frustrated woman discovers a problematic shortcut to physical perfection in the bowels of her gym locker... A working man finds himself at severe odds with the cult-like popularity of his lazy roommates magical bellybutton... Come Kill Me! is an absurd satirical and often searing debut collection from Mackinley Greenlaw author of Pushcart Prize nominated A Fresh Dog. Confident and relentless these voice-driven stories rip into modern themes of identity gender and body image with a serrated socially conscious edge. As his characters bumble from one extremity to the next Greenlaw constructs a stark funny violent world in which no one is safe from the ultimate pitfall--their own ego.
