In his first crime career-retrospective, including previously uncollected work, Lansdale shows exactly why critics continue to compare him to Elmore Leonard, Donald Westlake, Flannery O’Connor, and William Faulkner.“Pulpy, blackly humorous, compulsively readable, and somehow both wildly surreal and down-to-earth. Lansdale is a national fucking treasure.”―Christa Faust, author of Money ShotIn the 1950s, a young small-town projectionist mixes it up with a violent gang.

A lonely man engages in dubious acts while pining for his rubber duckie.In this collection of nineteen unforgettable crime tales, Joe R.
