Mister Negative and Other Stories

By Robert Peate

"If you enjoy seeing the workings of a truly original mind, this is a great book for you. The premise of each story is a very unusual take on the sorts of questions that humanity wrestles with. Even questions that we wrestle with all the time (examples: how can an omnibenevolent God let humans suffer? what does a perfect world look like-and would we really like it?) receive unique treatment."-Ina Roy-Faderman

Robert Peate's first collection features stories written from 2008 to 2012.

"Chasing Kerouac" is about a young man obsessed with finding a lost Jack Kerouac story.

"A Perfect World" asks, "What would a perfect world look like?"

"Neighbors" is about a man who suspects child abuse next door.

"The Deity" asks, "What would a loving god be like?"

"Mister Negative" is about a man who says whatever he wishes without regard for the consequences.

"The Creeps" is Peate's first serious ghost story, based on experiences from when he was fifteen.
