A Beast Without a Name
Author: Steve Brewer
Publisher: Down & Out Books
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 148
Book Description
Think you can’t buy a thrill? This book proves you wrong. Katy lied. Or did she? As with the blues and Elvis and somebody else’s favorite song, it’s open to interpretation. These twelve tales interpret shady pasts, dubious presents, and doomed futures. There’s no hiding inside a hall of rock and sand from stories as deliciously wicked and terrifically twisty as the jazz-rock noir that inspired them. These masters of crime fiction heard the call and wrote it on the wall for you and me. As they name the beast, they make alive worldly wonders in characters you’ve known for decades through the hypnotically woven tapestries of Steely Dan, destined to live on as indelibly as the hallucinatory memories in the caves of Altamira. Edited by Brian Thornton with stories by Steve Brewer, W.H. Cameron, Reed Farrel Coleman, Libby Cudmore, Aaron Erickson, Naomi Hirahara, Matthew Quinn Martin, Richie Narvaez, Kat Richardson, Peter Spiegelman, Jim Thomsen, and Jim Winter.

It's the Money, Amen
Author: Siam Erzuah
Publisher: Page Publishing Inc
ISBN: 1662407254
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 273
Book Description
When two money-conscious teenage thugs, Joseph Basabasa and Nipa Crazima, feel they could not tolerate receiving an undeserved education at a delinquent institution, Delinqhose Reformatory, they plan and implement an escape strategy to launch their careers as preachers of faith and miracle workers. Having succeeded in establishing themselves as miracle workers, the two friends, now called Pastor Joe Wrap and Mallam Nipa Manabad, achieve their aim by becoming rich while commanding thousands of followers. In their routine undertakings, they indulge in blatant deception to achieve their goals, while Joe Wrap particularly ups the ante by engaging in reckless philandering. With Wrap involved in cheating, his wife, Yenti-Gyae Wrap, decides to turn the tables on him by dating a young drug dealer. The pastor, however, could not stand the insult of his wife cheating on him and thus kills his wife's boyfriend. To settle the score, Mrs. Wrap avenges her late boyfriend by murdering her husband's girlfriend, Whinny Wilgetmyshare, when she catches the two having an affair. The Wraps are able to escape justice by using bribery while exploiting the incompetency of the local police force. At a certain point in time, an ascetic and itinerant Christian preacher, Man-of-Sorrow, with the help of an old pious and learned Muslim ally, El-Hajj Yudugud (who also happens to know the two charlatans), confronts the pastor and his Muslim friend on their unsavory deeds. The two faith peddlers, however, resent the intrusion and plan to eliminate the new adversaries if the need arises. Also caught in the saga of the faith peddlers are two philanthropic expatriates, Darling Adomaityte and Kidest Desta, who are working assiduously to assist members of Pastor Wrap's church and others while, at the same time, endeavoring to expose the pastor and his Muslim accomplice. At the end of this thrilling saga, victims of Pastor Wrap and Nipa Manabad avenge their ill treatment by planning and implementing the elimination of both religious preachers.
