  In her powerful collection, first published in 2016 and now featuring new stories, Vanessa Hua gives voice to immigrant families navigating a new America. Tied to their ancestral and adopted homelands in ways unimaginable in generations past, these memorable characters straddle both worlds but belong to none. 
   
   
   
  From a Hong Kong movie idol fleeing a sex scandal to an obedient daughter turned Stanford pretender, from a Chinatown elder summoned to his village to a Korean American pastor with a secret agenda, the characters in the collection illustrate the conflict between self and society, tradition and change. In "What We Have Is What We Need," winner of the Atlantic's Student Writing Contest, a boy from Mexico reunites with his parents in San Francisco. When he suspects his mother has found love elsewhere, he fights to keep his family together. 
   
   
   
  With insight and wit, Hua writes about what wounds us and what we must survive. This all-new edition of Deceit and Other Possibilities marks the emergence of a remarkable writer.

  Title: The Passeur 
  Series Name: Timeless Terrors 
  Series Entry: 126 
  Author: Robert W. Chambers 
  Narrator: Jonathan Dunne 
  Original Publication: 1895 
  Public Domain: Yes 
  Description: 
  The Passeur is a chilling exploration of fate, darkness, and the uncanny, written by Robert W. Chambers, master of psychological and supernatural horror. In this story, Chambers weaves a tense, atmospheric tale of a mysterious figure known as the “passeur” — a sinister guide who ferries souls across the threshold between life and death. 
  The narrator becomes entangled in events that straddle the line between reality and nightmare, encountering spectral presences, cryptic warnings, and the inescapable pull of a destiny he cannot fully understand. Chambers’ narrative is rich in suspense, blending a brooding Gothic sensibility with moments of quiet, unsettling terror. The horror is subtle but pervasive, arising from the unknown, the unseen, and the inexorable forces that shape human life. 
  Narrated by Amazon bestselling horror author Jonathan Dunne, this performance captures Chambers’ eerie atmosphere, mounting dread, and the uncanny tension that makes The Passeur a quintessential tale of late 19th-century supernatural horror — a story where crossing the threshold may reveal more than the living are ready to face.

  ADVANCE PRAISE FOR TRANSACTIONS WITH THE FALLEN 
  "Michael Elcock's stories enchant, disturb and remind us of the many worlds we inhabit. Touching on intimate moments and interactions, not a lot happens in these intertwined tales, and that is precisely their strength. A young man sits with an older woman one evening and learns about love. A soldier coaxes music out of a battered piano in an attempt to stay alive. Transactions with the Fallen is a study of human relationships told with an exacting eye for detail and the resonant moment." ---Eve Joseph, Griffin Poetry Prize Winner, 2019 
  "There's a lot to be learned from other people's childhoods---and from other people's adulthoods too, if they've been lucky enough to have one. When they're luckier still, there's a lot to be learned from other people's imaginations. In this remarkable book of stories, Michael Elcock offers us the fruits of all three: a rich, multifaceted childhood, a robust, thoughtful adulthood, and a lively, athletic imagination." ---Robert Bringhurst, author, poet, and recipient of the British Columbia Lieutenant Governor's Award for Literary Excellence 
  ABOUT THE AUTHOR

  How do you mark a quarter century? While parties are great—and we'll have those—I wanted to distill the time in a tangible way. To hold it in my hands, and share with you, dear listeners, in celebration and appreciation. 
   
   
   
  But how? 
   
   
   
  A collection! I dove into my published short fiction. Some I included because they were challenging to write. Several show my growth as a writer. I love them all. There's science fiction, fantasy, and, yes, horror. Plus an all-new story from Night's Edge. 
   
   
   
  If you know me only from my novels, welcome to the darker, deeper corners of my imagination.
