Every story is a perfect little snow globe of sidesplitting misery.
I am in love with this weird, gross, hilarious, beautiful book, and with Shane Kowalski\'s cursed sentences, which enchant you, seduce you, then drop you off in hell.
He made you something.
Don\'t be afraid.
It\'s a room that belongs to Shane Kowalski, and he is welcoming you with strong, open, sweat-drenched arms.
Can you imagine a love child of Lydia Davis and Richard Brautigan? How about Russell Edson\'s ghost having tea with Diane Williams? Reading Small Moods is like entering a weird and private room of reject fairy tales and goofball fables.
In ninety-five flash fictions, Shane Kowalski\'s Small Moods presents lovers, dogs, bathtubs, hands, jewels, bananas, peasant boys, cuckolds, Jesus, dildoes, shoes, nudes, cults, sadness, the movie Carrie , and much much more.
