Shake Away These Constant Days - Paperback

by Ryan Werner (Author)

Thirty short short stories about twists in ephemeral truth, the way small amounts of time are dissected and put back together wrong, if at all.

"Each of the stories in Ryan Werner's Shake Away These Constant Days ends with a sentence that's a fist to the ribs. The collection builds into repeated shots to the soft part of your guts, a beautiful pummeling. By the end of Shake Away These Constant Days, you won't even notice the bruises, the missing teeth, the pain. You'll only want to go another round." - Sarah Rose Etter, author of Tongue Party

"Ryan Werner's debut marks the arrival of an important new voice: quirky, world-wise, and as joyfully rambunctious as your favorite punk rock song. Listen up. You'll be glad you did." - Tom Cooper, author of Phantasmagoria and Barataria
