The Unsettling
A Short Stories, Fiction book. I had never heard of this author before reading these stories, and know nothing more about him. But this...
A stunning, Poe-esque collection of short fiction about outsiders, lost dogs, romance, and life’s surprising mysteries.Populated by strangers, ghosts, and other shadowy figures, the thirteen stories in The Unsettling attend to those startling moments when what we have understood as familiar is suddenly revealed as mysterious and foreign.A lonely man saving library books from an outbreak of mold listens to a coworker’s tale about a blind woman and imbues it with his own sense of romance; a woman drives a Gold Firebird through the desert with a television playing “Rockford Files” reruns on the passenger seat; and a girl returns to her childhood home to spy on its new inhabitants, not realizing they are aware of her surveillance.Told through Rock’s imaginative and wholly original voice, these are haunted tales about fascination, transformation, and the relationship between the two.

More About The Unsettling
I had never heard of this author before reading these stories, and know nothing more about him. But this was one hell of a book of stories. I secretly want to give this book 4.5 stars. Really liked this Rock book. He again spun some of his characters into the book just a little bit, the trampoline, etc. It was several short stories, all heavy, all entertaining, all definitely a look into the author's mind. What an amazing collection of stories, each one uniquely eerily surreal culminating the the final masterpiece at the end!
