Thrilling Tales of Modern Men

di Danny Mcbride (Autore)

Random House, 2026

From the beloved creator and star of The Righteous Gemstones and Eastbound & Down comes a wild collection of short stories featuring Danny McBride’s signature dark humor. There are many sides to Danny McBride: he starred as the iconic character Kenny Powers in the cult classic HBO show Eastbound & Down, a series he also wrote and created, just as he did with Vice Principals and The Righteous Gemstones. He’s produced horror films (Halloween) and starred in sci-fi (Alien: Covenant). But ever since he was young, he’s been writing short fiction, and it’s always been private. Until now. There’s a washed-up sitcom actor who takes revenge on the coyote who killed his dog. There are two young runaways who decide to part ways, but not before one last big adventure. There is The Modern Age Town of Southern America National Park, which boasts the most realistic reenactments of suburbia since the disaster happened. There is an amateur magician who gets in way over his head with a deadly stunt in a local mall. These stories take viciously unexpected tragic and comedic turns. While each one is addictively unpredictable, when taken together, these darkly funny, strangely emotional, and occasionally brutal tales provide an indelible look at the fragile masculinity of modern American culture.
