>Stories for Nighttime and Some for the Day by Ben Loory
"Loory's collection of wry and witty, dark and perilous contemporary fables is populated by people--and monsters and trees and jocular octopi--who are motivated by the same fears and desires that isolate and unite us all. In this singular universe, televisions talk (and sometimes sing), animals live in small apartments where their nephews visit from the sea, and men and women and boys and girls fall down wells and fly through space and find love on Ferris wheels. In a voice full of fable, myth, and dream, Stories for Nighttime and Some for the Day draws us into a world of delightfully wicked recognitions, and introduces us to a writer of uncommon talent and imagination."

>Insects Are Just Like You and Me Except Some of Them Have Wings by Kuzhali Manickavel
"'Not merely lyrical and strange, but also deadpan funny'--Miranda July. A centipede in a shoe, revelations in a shoebox, nosebleeds, exploding women, and a dead mouse named Miraculous populate this collection of thirty-five short stories from one of India's most original young writers. Kuzhali Manickavel was born in Winnipeg, Manitoba, lived in various places around Canada, and moved to Chidambaram, Tamil Nadu, India when she was thirteen years old. Contrary to popular belief, she is not very much fond of insects."

I wanted to pick this one up after seeing an anon pimp out the author in the female authors thread we had. And it's flash fiction, which I've been loving lately.

It'd be nice if this could turn into a general ebook sharing thread too. I'm thinking of buying a few more from Twisted Spoon Press later and sharing those.
