Synopsis: "An audacious and wickedly smart comedic writer brings his full weight to bear in a collection of his early work. Grayson, no stranger to experimentation, here assembles four of his most engaging chapbooks, which merge nicely as an eclectic anthology of intriguing short stories. The author, who breaks nearly every literary rule in an obsessive effort to be unique, is both maddeningly and hilariously self-aware. 'Narcissism and Me' leaps dizzyingly between the author's presence and the actual story like a snake eating its tail, while 'Sixteen Attempts to Justify My Existence' reads like a blog from another planet, and 'I Saw Mommy Kissing Citicorp' waxes poetic on the rise and fall of 1980s greed...Though certainly unconventional, Highly Irregular Stories are refreshing because of their aloofness, which allows the author to indulge his peculiar point of view...An iconoclast sways to his own beat, making beautiful music along the way." - Kirkus Discoveries, 7/14/06
