Wearing Dad's Head : Stories (9781628727043)



"I can never remember my dreams, so Mr. Yourgrau's stories are a pretty good substitute." --David Byrne

Barry Yourgrau's imagination makes critics reach: Fellini? Kafka? Freud in a funny hat? Yourgrau is a fantasist like no other. His stories run brief and hallucinatorily vivid in style, heart-jarring and intimate in emotion. As Susan Cheever puts it: "Odd, true, and thoroughly hilarious."

Here is Barry Yourgrau's celebrated second book, which focuses his transfiguring surreal imagination on our most personal institution: family. Wearing Dad's Head constructs an oedipal uproar of genres and realities, preserving the wild poetry and pathos of childhood, young and old. Dream awake in the Yourgrau domestic universe, where father and son go on safari in the suburbs, mother has fun being struck by lightning, a cow gets dolled up in lingerie, and a family ghost whines on and on about a tweed coat. Where parents die but just won't go away. No other writer today can twist reality with such glee and tender-hearted poignancy. Wearing Dad's Head--a classic of its own genre--will undoubtedly enchant and stupefy readers.

Skyhorse Publishing, as well as our Arcade, Yucca, and Good Books imprints, are proud to publish a broad range of books for readers interested in fiction--novels, novellas, political and medical thrillers, comedy, satire, historical fiction, romance, erotic and love stories, mystery, classic literature, folklore and mythology, literary classics including Shakespeare, Dumas, Wilde, Cather, and much more.

The importance of literature in the contemporary classroom (9783639878745)

Reading requires time and devotion, both of which are scarce goods in contemporary classrooms. These days economic needs dictate the pace of learning and education is mostly measured by its promised pecuniary potential. However, the latest political events, such as streams of refugees searching for a new life in foreign cultures and the way host countries react to the impact of these new cultures, show that there is a common need to define, defend and evaluate identities. Teaching literature might not be an instant answer to the challenges of today's society but it can surely help to reflect upon the importance, flexibility and borders of identity.
