From the Publisher
<p>Praise for Hal Niedzviecki''s
fiction:</p><BR>"Look Down, This is Where it Must Have
Happened reveals the super powers of story telling for the digital
age--or any age. The collection encompasses a range of literary
genres, from magical to domestic realism, from the absurdity of a
fetus quoting statistics to dialogue so fresh you’ll look
around to see who’s talking."--The Rumpus<BR>"Hal
Niedzviecki is a remarkable writer."—Margot
Livesey</p><p>"Niedzviecki is a gifted writer,
thoughtful and insightful."—<I>The Globe and
Mail</I></p><p>"There''s tons of talent
here."—<I>NOW</I></p><p>The
acclaimed author of<I>The Peep Diaries</I>
and<I>Hello, I''m Special</I> returns to fiction and
delivers a mind-altering collection of short stories that confront
the hypocrisies, humiliations, and hilarities of modern life. Hal
Niedzviecki has established himself as one of Canada''s most
influential young writers, and in this wildly imaginative
collection he romps through social conventions, confronts some of
society''s most intractable arguments, and deftly captures the
zeitgeist of our fractured times.</p><br>
