The Ant King and Other Stories

Benjamin Rosenbaum

Fantasy Science Fiction Short Stories

"Featuring outlandish and striking imagery throughout – a woman in love with an elephant, an orange that ruled the world – this collection is a surrealistic wonderland." – Publishers Weekly

A dazzling, postmodern debut collection of pulp and surreal fictions: a writer of alternate histories defends his patron's zeppelin against assassins and pirates; a woman transforms into hundreds of gumballs; an emancipated children's collective goes house hunting.
