Domestic Disturbances - Peter Grandbois
Praise for Domestic Disturbances
Peter Grandbois’s unblinking fictions in Domestic Disturbances are composed of the most composed deadpan takes this side of Buster Keaton. The fictions startle down the stare—curious, nonplussed, bemused—an unmussed must have. Disturbing, yes, in the way we seem to see Buster fall through the façade of that building in that storm. Domestic, in the way rye bread can sour sweetly into wideeyed hallucinogenic toasts. Wry indeed.
~ MICHAEL MARTONE
Domestic Disturbances unthinks suburban flavorlessness into a series of explosive metalogical unsettlings where anything is always-already happening. These vortical singularities teach us how, were we only to learn to pay attention, we would discover ourselves living in a radically mutable world of layered surprise and wonder.
