In Pieces of Rags and Bones Michael Keith brings to the reader a singular collection of idiosyncratic and laconic narratives designed to amuse and enlighten. In the tradition of Lydia Davis, Kurt Vonnegut, and Joy Williams, this quirky volume mines the full range of human behavior and experience for all its varied and distinct manifestations and consequences. Powerfully imagined, the epigrammatic tales between these covers provide a sometimes numinous, often harrowing, sojourn across landscapes both familiar and exotic.
