Is It So?: Glimpses, Glyphs, & Found Novels

By Kevin McIlvoy

The last work of fiction from acclaimed author Kevin McIlvoy, Is It So? Glimpses, Glyphs, & Found Novels showcases McIlvoy's artistic dedication to the irreal, the carnivalesque, to ghost stories, fairy tales, the short short form-- writing that thrives in the edges, margins, and borderlands. A retired dance instructor battles a flock of dive-bombing crows for control of his garden. A teacher and his students develop an uncommon bond with a toy parrot. A seeker in the alternate universe of a DMV is dispatched through numberless corridors to see the Clerk of Happiness. Is It So? tunnels deep into the recesses of long-life experience. With clear-eyed and transformative vision-and confidence in the power of truths left unspoken-- Kevin McIlvoy gifts readers "found" stories excavated from the everyday.
