An aging man, happy husband, confirmed agnostic, and struggling writer with questionable talent.
Like a carnival ride that locks you in with a bar across your lap; the double doors pop open, the carriage lurches, and you wait for what lurks in each room. A story in continual metamorphosis, well-executed, and a disturbing look at psychiatric malpractice and the subjugation of bodily autonomy.

I listened to Angel Down in one sitting on New Year's Day. The prose is exquisite, and the grisly details convince us that Kraus was there on the WWI front line, taking copious notes. It's a bleak tale of war, greed, and arrogance that could be a lesson today.

Authors, you can brainstorm. You can create. You can persevere through the growing pains of rejection, and you can find your voice through countless hours of honest work. And when you see your words in print, you’ll know that it was you. All you. That’s an irreplaceable feeling.
