PASS THE SELTZER. Moe Howard Died For Our Sins
made-to-fit fiction for the maladjusted by Dale Andrew White With humor as twisted as its stories' plots,
Moe Howard Died For Our Sins takes readers on a rollicking, hilarious ride featuring 19 tales snatched from
Comic Relief,
Modern Short Stories, B
eyond Science Fiction & Fantasy,
The MacGuffin,
Nuthouse and other magazines. Go to Hell -- and see it as a tourist. Get lured into a pie-throwing cult. Peek backstage at the Second Coming. Encounter talking pigs, a tongue-twisting poet, levitating patients, militant tots and a song-and-dance act that's its own show stopper. The misadventures keep coming in this unforgettable fiction anthology nominated for the James Thurber Prize for American Humor.
"Part-time iconoclast and two-fingered typist Dale Andrew White is a natural born storyteller with an especial flair for blending fantasy, whimsy, satire and a fevered imagination into original stories that are replete with ribald humor and reader-engaging novelty. ... Subtitled 'made-to-fit fiction for the maladjusted,' this collection of short stories showcase a genuine and offbeat talent... Highly recommended reading!" -
Midwest Book Review "Kind of a mix of Woody Allen and Garrison Keillor, with a dash of Jean Shepherd." -
