Grey Wolfe LaJoie
A collection of fiction and graphic ephemera,Little Onesplays in a space of shadows and in-betweens.
Informed by Appalachian experience and traditions of Southern storytelling, these award-winning stories are populated by the world's dispossessed, disturbed, and disregarded: the quiet interior life of a passed-over laborer, the bedtime story a goose tells a snake about a boy named Grey, moments of a road-killed raccoon's afterlife, advice to the children of a future apocalypse.
These mischievous polyvocal tales are an exercise in audacity, in embracing the bizarre and carnivalesque within us. Grey Wolfe LaJoie employs uncanny wit and deep empathy to explore the way shame can turn into desperate violence, and to shed light on the smallest among us.
