  Evil Flowers

  From the acclaimed, award-winning author of Present Tense Machine and Knots, a collection of playfully surreal stories about love, death, and metamorphosis. 
   
  In Evil Flowers, a precise but madcap collection of short stories, Gunnhild Øyehaug extracts the bizarre from the mundane and reveals the strange, startling brilliance of everyday life. 
   
  Across twenty-five stories, Øyehaug renovates the form again and again, confirming Lydia Davis’s observation that her every story is “a formal surprise, smart and droll.” The stories converse with, contradict, and expand on one another; birds, hagfish, and wild beasts reappear, gnawing at the fringes. A section of a woman’s brain slips into the toilet bowl, removing her ability to remember or recognize types of birds (particularly problematic because she is an ornithologist). Medicinal leeches ingest information from fiberoptic cables, and a new museum sinks into the ground. 
   
  Inspired by Charles Baudelaire, a dreamer and romantic in the era of realism, Øyehaug revolts against the ordinary, reaching instead for the wonder to be found in fantasy and absurdity. Brimming with wit, ingenuity, and irrepressible joy, these stories mark another triumph from a dazzling international writer.

  He’s a billionaire game designer. She’s the Las Vegas showgirl. With their ten-year high school reunion coming up, can he prove to her they belong together? 
  Anthony: I fell in love with Lola our freshman year, but as a geeky pre-teen, I didn’t have a chance with her. Now I’m a game designer and one of the richest men in the world, but I never forgot about her. When I get invited to our 10 year reunion, I have an excuse to look her up, only to find she’s here and on a dozen billboards I pass coming in and out of Vegas. She might not look the same, but is she the same quirky girl I’ve fantasized about over the years? And will she like who I’ve become?  
  Lola: My name is Lola, and yes, I wear yellow feathers in my hair. When I’m not performing as THE Las Vegas showgirl, I’m the same closed off goth chick I was in high school with a giant neon sign over my head that reads, Don’t-Try-Me. So when a guy pays $25,000 to meet me, obviously I’m suspicious. Only, I don’t expect him to be the sweet guy I went to high school with. Nor do I expect him to invite me to our 10-year reunion as his date. Does he want me or the showgirl on his arm? 
  Each book in the series is a complete, standalone story. This is a steamy, short story romance, complete with instalove and a guaranteed happily ever-after. If you're looking for a great lunchtime read, or something to spark sexy dreams before bed, you’ll want to pick this one up.
