The Man with Eight Pairs of Legs Campbell Leslie Kirk
In these brilliant, thematically linked stories, men and women from the Midwest to the West Coast, from Germany to Japan--engineers, opera singers, waitresses, teenagers, and monks--reckon with their body's relationship to grief, illness, violation, technology, and genocide. The Man with Eight Pairs of Legs is about the ways our bodies are marked by memory, often literally (burns, bruises, tracks, tattoos), and the risky decisions we make when pushed to the extreme. They escape their fate in unusual ways--by befriending the squatting heroin addict next door, using a child's flute as a gun in the dark, or ordering a new pair of legs, all in a variety of rich settings.
Leslie Campbell's fiction debut is a must-read and sure There's a little O'Connor, a dash of DeLillo, and a cup of Alice Munro mixed together with a great deal of compassion.
