Bøker av Jack Bragen

This collection has previously published and previously unpublished works. The fiction is nonstandard, and it is a different animal than you would see in a typical book. Rather than being an imitator of an imitator, I've decided to think for myself and write accordingly. Some of the works have appeared in the Street Spirit Newspaper, a couple have been in Bewildering Stories, and many of them, no one has seen before--until now. I think it is worthwhile to take a shot at this. If you are not patient with a 500 page book, keep in mind that this book is a mere 50 pages and you could be done with it in an hour and a half, unless you give it a closer look.
