Summary:
An uncanny and electric story collection from SJ Sindu, Lambda Literary finalist and Publishing Triangle Edmund White Debut Fiction Award-winning author of Blue-Skinned Gods. In "Dark Academia and the Lesbian Masterdoc," a millennial English professor facing mounting personal crises puts her energies into TikTok, but her newfound viral fame could wreck her already unstable life. In "Patriots' Day," a man trying to leave his marriage for the woman he loves finds himself caught up in larger currents of anti-Asian violence. In other stories, an array of loners and artists-a young poet haunted by the ghost of Oscar Wilde, a queer beer brewer, a boy with wings-struggle for connection and fulfillment in a world battered by the pandemic and reactionary politics. A daring writer with limitless range, Sindu can depict shocking cruelty as readily as small moments of queer joy. The Goth House Experiment is a startling and very funny work by one of America's most exciting young queer voices.
