A sham pastor hires a cocaine-sniffing centaur to act as mascot for an Evangelical mega-church’s arena football team; Paul Revere flashes across a revolutionary sky on the back of a sunbird; an ammo-less infantry drummer and a bleeding medic are beat back to a Best Western parking lot in the Battle of Sacramentosuch are the situations contained in Ryan Ridge’s Hunters & Gamblers. Winners of the negative lottery, these characters have learned to love to lose everything until there’s nothing left to lose. And the end is desperate, black, drenched in whiskey, but punctuated by poignancy and revelry and revelation. The tales in this lurid, edgy debut illuminate blackness with even blacker humor and a sense of outlandish beauty.
Hunters and Gamblers edition by Ryan Ridge Literature Fiction eBooks
Reading this collection of very short stories along with a few longer ones and a novella was pure pleasure. I enjoyed it so much I taught it to a composition class where students were both baffled and excited by the playfulness and intelligence of the writing. Ryan Ridge has an excellent ear for language and a poet's touch with syntax. It's a book that sticks its finger into the nervous system of American history and culture, challenging the proscribed way we look at everyday life. It stays with you in ways you don't expect and comforts you that all the craziness of this life has a voice and an order.Product details
