Billy Glandzk has been smoking too much pot and hates apples, so it's time for him to change his lifestyle. Justin Isis lives in a single tiny room in Ikebukuro but, through amore and refined fashion-sense, hopes to rise to higher spheres. Ricky Fishback is a bicycle cop who has spent too much time in the saddle, and his restless sex life is taking a turn for the worse. Can he get his mojo back? Carla Jo Arduini works at the Family Dollar Store, but her aspirations go higher--much higher. Will her faith guide her to success? \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn \u003cem\u003ePleasant Tales\u003c\/em\u003e, a contrasting follow up to his critically acclaimed 2010 collection \u003cem\u003eUnpleasant Tales\u003c\/em\u003e, Brendan Connell has written ten unusual and colourful stories of contemporary life. The brittle and deranged mundanity that surrounds us is viewed through a lens that is both extremely perceptive and ever so slightly flawed, resulting in both an inverted projection of the familiar and a dose of the alien. These are modernist, sparse and slightly subversive expositions on the normal that perform a disjointed dance with the world you thought you knew.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 160\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.37 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 20, 2017\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47248442491129,"sku":"9781908125484","price":17.28,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/ZVErRUw3eDRIbXJZTXVnWi90Q3R5Zz09.webp?v=1768635090","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/pleasant-tales-paperback","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
