Michael Chabon is back with a brand-new collection that reinvigorates the stay-up-all-night, edge-of-the seat, fingernail-biting, page-turning tradition of literary short stories, featuring Margaret Atwood, Stephen King, Peter Straub, David Mitchell, Jonathan Lethem, Heidi Julavits, Roddy Doyle, and more!
Michael Chabon is an American author. Chabon's first novel, *The Mysteries of Pittsburgh* (1988), was published when he was 25. He followed it with a second novel, *Wonder Boys* (1995), and two short-story collections. In 2000, Chabon published *The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay,* a novel that John Leonard, in a 2007 review of a later novel, called Chabon's magnum opus. It received the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction in 2001.
His novel *The Yiddish Policemen's Union,* an alternate history mystery novel, was published in 2007 and won the Hugo, Sidewise, Nebula and Ignotus awards; his serialized novel *Gentlemen of the Road* appeared in book form in the fall of that same year. His novel *Telegraph Avenue,* published in 2012 and billed as "a twenty-first century Middlemarch," concerns the tangled lives of two families in the Bay Area of San Francisco in the year 2004.
