Vengeful Hank And Other Shortweird Stories

di Marcel St. Pierre (Autore)

Shortweird Press, 2023

"... reminds me of Terry Pratchett... if he was Canadian and had ADHD..." - Steve Patterson, author and host of The Debaters (CBC Radio 1) A time-travel prototype lands in a Viking village. A horse- riding fiddler crab reveals his secret. A despotic tyrant is confronted by a penguin. Each story is "an imaginative gem... funny, charming, surprising" (Don Ferguson, Royal Canadian Air Farce) with a writing style that's "tight, airy and whimsical"(Collen McKie, Lavender Lines Book Review). In Vengeful Hank & Other Shortweird Stories, Canadian comedian, actor and writer Marcel St. Pierre showcases his ability to conjure unique characters and situations, at once uniquely strange and ridiculous but somehow universally sympathetic. Vengeful Hank & Other Shortweird Stories is the first volume of the Shortweird Stories series: offbeat tales that blend the absurd, the mundane and the manic alike with a hint of bittersweet darkness. These are surreal stories for short attention spans. "... an offebeat linguistic romp - delightful twists - sketches of a sunshine mind making leaps of logic into the absurd..." - Sheree Fitch, author, Kiss The Joy As It Flies (Stephen Leacock Literary Humour Award Shortlist) "... an imaginative gem where what's real is redefined and the absurd has become the new normal... funny, charming, surprising, whimsical, delightful..." - Don Ferguson, Royal Canadian Air Farce "Never has the title of a book so correctly advertised what is between the covers... I laughed, ate a sandwich, than laughed again..." - Colin Mochrie, author, comedian, Whose Line Is It Anyway?
