Cyrus Duffleman finds himself in good company over at Iambik sharing space with arguably the greatest overlooked novel of the twentieth century, Ford Madox Ford's The Good Soldier.
Okay, so Ford may be the canonical genius, the great one I just mentioned as the most overlooked--yeah, but you know better to listen to what I say, and all that, but I would suggest that Cyrus's sloppy, sad-sack routines can give Ford's narrator a run for his sadness. Unless you find his troubles to be amusing.
Alex Kudera’s award-winning novel, Fight for Your Long Day (Atticus Books), was drafted in a walk-in closet during a summer in Seoul, South Korea. Auggie’s Revenge (Beating Windward Press) is his second novel. His numerous short stories include “Frade Killed Ellen” (Dutch Kills Press), “Bombing from Above” (Heavy Feather Review), and “A Thanksgiving” (Eclectica Magazine).
