The Story
Razor-sharp short stories from the greatest contemporary comics stylist In All the Cameras in My Room, Michael DeForge's hilarious and horny approach to comics fiction never disappoints. In “Figure Skating,” a star athlete’s impossible feats captivate the world, turning a simple skater’s rotation into a catalyst for national paralysis. While in “Holiday Special,” a narrator tells us about his favorite Christian holiday special that bears an uncanny resemblance to a certain bald-headed-boy-and-his-dog classic. No matter the conceit, characters in All the Cameras in My Room stretch and flatten and spiral around each other and burrow deep into the folds of a reader’s brain.
