Corey McComb: Deepfakes, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

In this razor-sharp collection of short stories, Corey McComb explores a treacherous terrain where reality blurs and certainty crumbles. Set against backdrops of Southern California coastal towns, these tales expose the fabrications we create and the harsh truths we can't escape.
McComb's characters exist in a world where truth is malleable: A woman confronts evidence of her husband's apparent infidelity. A forgotten password stands between a man and millions in cryptocurrency. A trust fund drifter reunites with a childhood friend for the wrong reasons. And a pandemic threatens what little freedom remains in a young couple's relationship.
Raw, darkly observant, and emotionally tender, Deepfakes examines how people survive when the mirage of certainty shatters. These stories capture the disappointment and unexpected beauty of ordinary life, where the deepest truths hide behind carefully constructed facades. McComb emerges as a bold new voice in contemporary fiction, delivering dirty realism at its most potent-told with unforgettable clarity and unexpected compassion.
