Descriere magazin:
Winner of the 2022 Fiction Chapbook Contest, selected by Isle McElroy Tucker Leighty-Phillips builds a series of mythologies; of childhood, of Appalachia, of seeing the world through the 3D glasses of poverty. The stories in Maybe This Is What I Deserve dip their toes between sentiment and surrealism-a whirlpool swallows a boy in a family swimming pool, a girl befriends the lice her mother can\'t afford to eradicate, a group of children form a secret society in the walls of a fast food play place. Using the logic of childhood across kids and adults alike, Leighty-Phillips builds a world filled with wonder and tells a new story of working-class, rural living.

He summons worlds where aliens nap in planters, people wait in line for a kiss from a magical catfish, and a monster posts messages to the community bulletin board. Every story in Maybe This Is What I Deserve is a perfect gem I\'d like to put in my pocket and carry with me. -Dana Diehl, author of The Classroom Donald Barthelme\'s desire to be on the leading edge of the trash phenomenon is spelled out spectacularly in the markedly remarkable collection, Maybe This Is What I Deserve curated by the edgy midden-minded Tucker Leighty-Phillips. These fine fouled fictions are like exquisite flying machines, log-jammed and adrift, in the Mississippi of stalled and exhausted satellites in their decaying orbits, circumscribing the grumpy gravity of blue, blue Earth. These fictions ping signals, track and reconnoiter, weat
