The Goat-God and Other Stories: Cautionary Tales For Peculiar People

A man discovers a destroyed typewriter, as well as a series of short stories purported to be the dying machine's last words to the world. But is the typewriter truly out of commission, or is it simply biding its time?


Each story involves individuals facing unusual situations and learning about themselves in the process. A teenage boy finds his place at the end of civilization. A little girl discovers a dead body. Another girl recognizes the existence of time. An elderly couple faces the changing of the seasons. And a cafe patron realizes there is more to the night than they thought.


These stories and others show that even a dying typewriter has something to say about the human experience.
