UNIVERSAL SOLDIER meets DEADPOOL! June 26, 1971. Location: Mr. Happy Food & Drink, outside El Paso, Texas. John J. Ramirez is a Vietnam veteran. While serving in Southeast Asia in the late 60’s, he was a test subject for an experimental combat performance enhancement drug – essentially a super-soldier serum. Now stateside, Ramirez can’t remember his own name or how he ended up here. His life has become a series of disjointed flashes – past and present, real and imaginary, continuously overlapping and morphing. And then there's that annoying Grim Reaper only he can see. The chatty bastard won't stop talking and calling him “bro.” Meanwhile, elsewhere in El Paso, Father Karras is a pastor who has determined he is a Knight of the Apocalypse, descended to Earth against the will of a too-forgiving God. Holding a sawed-off shotgun named Salvation, he sets out to do his work. At the Mr. Happy Food & Drink, the paths of these two men are meant to cross. There WILL be blood. A Caliber Comics release.

An eerily dreamlike memoir, and the first work of nonfiction by one of our most inventive novelists. Aurelia, Aurélia begins on a boat. The author, sixteen years old, is traveling to Europe at an age when one can “try on personae like dresses.” She has the confidence of a teenager cultivating her earliest obsessions—Woolf, Durrell, Bergman—sure of her maturity, sure of the life that awaits her. Soon she finds herself in a Greece far drearier than the Greece of fantasy, “climbing up and down the steep paths every morning with the real old women, looking for kindling.” Kathryn Davis’s hypnotic new book is a meditation on the way imagination shapes life, and how life, as it moves forward, shapes imagination. At its center is the death of her husband, Eric. The book unfolds as a study of their marriage, its deep joys and stinging frustrations; it is also a book about time, the inexorable events that determine beginnings and endings. The preoccupations that mark Davis’s fiction are recognizable here—fateful voyages, an intense sense of place, the unexpected union of the magical and the real—but the vehicle itself is utterly new. Aurelia, Aurélia explodes the conventional bounds of memoir. It is an astonishing accomplishment.

Reality and dream collide in Amy Bonnaffons's "dazzling," wildly inventive "miracle of a love story" about an affair between the living and the dead (NPR) For weeks, Rachel has been noticing the same golden-haired young man sitting at her Brooklyn bus stop, staring off with a melancholy air. When, one day, she finally musters the courage to introduce herself, the chemistry between them is undeniable: Thomas is wise, witty, handsome, mysterious, clearly a kindred spirit. There's just one tiny problem: He's dead. Stuck in a surreal limbo governed by bureaucracy, Thomas is unable to "cross over" to the afterlife until he completes a 90-day stint on earth, during which time he is forbidden to get involved with a member of the living -- lest he incur "regrets." When Thomas and Rachel break this rule, they unleash a cascade of bizarre, troubling consequences. Set in the hallucinatory borderland between life and death, The Regrets is a gloriously strange and breathtakingly sexy exploration of love, the cataclysmic power of fantasies, and the painful, exhilarating work of waking up to reality, told with uncommon grace and humor by a visionary artist at the height of her imaginative power.
