American Literature is a quicksilver portfolio of thirty short stories by writer and poet Ed Miller, author of The Whole Enchilada (Cervena Barva Press). Stories such as “First and Last” and “In the Shadow of the Season” explore small domestic dramas freighted with ambiguous moral undertones. Others, such as “North Nagansett Road” and “Surrealismo,” follow the broad contours of the absurd. Others, still, are precisely rendered miniatures which evoke a haunting and spiritual dislocation. Long published in journals and millennial magazines of the small press renaissance, Miller’s work offers up “wry observances of ordinary events” (Robin Stratton, ed. Boston Literary Magazine) with a “deeply ironic, sometimes fall-down funny . . . postindustrial, commercial worldview” (Joyce Jenkins, author of Portal and Joy Road).
