Book Description
Howard Waldrop is a writer’s writer. His fiction is erudite, gonzo, wistful, funny, and beautifully written. Waldrop has a capacious, encyclopedic knowledge of superheroes, baseball players, Mexican wrestlers, world wars, longdead film stars, oddball television shows, pulp serials, radio plays, fairy tales, scientific expeditions, extinct species, and knockknock jokes. His stories are sophisticated, magical recombinations of the stuff that our popculture dreams are made of. Never published in paperback, long out of print, and extremely collectible, Howard Who’ was Waldrop’s seminal debut collection. If you haven’t read Waldrop before, you’re in for a treat.
