"I finished this book with my heart pounding and grateful, my coffee cold and my smile wide and crying like a baby." -- Daniel Handler

The characters in Praying Drunk speak in tongues, torture classmates, fall in love, abandon their children, keep machetes beneath passenger seats, and collect porcelain figurines. Ranging from Kentucky to Florida to Haiti, these stories enact the struggle to remain physically and spiritually alive throughout an untamable, turbulent world.

Described as an author whose "voice lands somewhere between William Faulkner and Stephen King," Kyle Minor presents a dark, compelling collection of fiction showcasing the talent that has earned him multiple literary honors (New Pages).
