Alchemy Rum: Short Fiction & the Graveyard Noir
An immortal stranger agelessly roams the earth, hunting for the one thing he can never have…a hapless courier delivering a non-descript package with invaluable contents of which he will never know… an I.Q.-challenged, all-American male unknowingly selling his soul (and skull) to corporations for the ecstasies of carnality… a nightmare of the future and the past writhing in a bodybag on a damp asphalt road in the blackest of nights…a talentless alcoholic author beckoning the undead from a Ouija board for inspiration … and the companion piece The Graveyard Noir, an autobiographical journal kept by the author himself detailing his adventures as an overnight gas station clerk, including an heroic intervention in a robbery, blend to form the darkly eccentric concoction of Alchemy Rum, a series of vignettes, poetry, and photography. These stories, woven together artfully, are not for the faint-of-heart or Midwestern housewife, but rather for one with an appreciation of dark humor and intense imagination. Do not begin consumption of this volume in the midnight hours, unless you intend to be late for work tomorrow. Every vignette hovers its murky shadow over the others, branching into a bizarre kind of alternate reality. So go ahead, pour yourself a swirling goblet of Alchemy Rum – just remember, you have been forewarned.
