Title: Crazy water
First published: 1996
Description: In Crazy Water: Six Fictions, Lori Baker pushes the boundaries between truth and reality with curious, tragi-comic results. The imagination is Baker's terrain, and in these stories, pleasant suburban childhoods, family drives, seaside vacations, and an academic's quest for tenure all are strangely warped, yet nonetheless still mirror a world we thought we knew. In these brief pages, boys become dogs, students hide in molluscan places, and mothers do their best to rescind their unsatisfying children.
Subjects: Fiction, short stories (single author)
