Benjamin Rosenbaum's is one of
science fiction's brightest stars. His debut collection spans the weirdest
corners of literature and science fiction, exploring family, loyalty,
and memory. A dazzling, post-modern collection of pulp and surreal fictions:
a writer of alternate histories defends his patron's zeppelin against
assassins and pirates, a man's wife becomes hundreds of gumballs, an
emancipated collective of children go house hunting. Benjamin Rosenbaum
grew up in Arlington, Virginia, and received degrees in computer science
and religious studies from Brown University. His work has been published
in Harper's, Nature, McSweeney's, F&SF, Asimov's, Interzone,
All-Star Zeppelin Adventure Stories, and Strange Horizons.
Small Beer Press published his chapbook Other
Cities. He and his family live in Basle, Switzerland.
