Notes from the Fog

By Ben Marcus

Book Overview

Ben Marcus returns with a collection of timely dystopian visions of alienation in a modern world. Here a hapless, corporate drone finds love after being disfigured from testing his employer's newest nutrition supplement; a father starts to suspect that his son's precocity has turned sinister; and two architects in a failing marriage must consider the ethics of artificially inciting emotion as they construct a memorial to a terrorist attack. It's these characters and others that over the course of thirteen short stories showcase Marcus's compassion, imagination, and mordant humor. Never has existential catastrophe been so much fun.
