This Keeps Happening

Short, punchy, visceral stories

A bush party leads to
self-immolation. A cab ride ends in warfare. A squirrel is eviscerated. A
universally impossible dare is accepted and proves not to be fatal. The
weird kid triumphs. The stories in H.B. Hogan’s debut collection sizzle
like butter on hot cast iron-they’re rich and dark and full of scrappy,

sordid and sparkling humanity.

[A] darkly entertaining debut collection. –Toronto Star

This Keeps Happening
is an impressive debut, one that will leave you laughing, cringing,
looking off into space uncomfortably, then turning the page once again. –Broken Pencil
