Alan Powers is getting on in years, and he's coming to terms with some of the difficult people he's loved in his life, helped by his wife, Marilyn, who is much younger and some ways much wiser. He gets calls from his ex-wife who says she's getting phone calls from their dead son. He deals with his emotionally damaged brother, his surviving son's struggles, and his crazy mother. He must placate the ghosts of past loves and cope with the loss of dear friends. Just as Paris beckons, he is struck down by a serious illness. Yet Marilyn will see that more remains of his life than a quiet summing up, and that in the end all their hard-won dreams will come to pass. MORE OF EVERYTHING is a love story told in a very special voice with moments that will make you laugh and cry, just like real life.

Earl Bogwell marries into what he thinks is a mafia family. Strange things happen: people disappear, bombings and mysterious suicides occur. Is it all coincidences, or is everything being orchestrated by his unlikely father-in-law?

Following the internationally acclaimed publication of Stitches, David Small emerged as a storied figure in graphic literature, eliciting comparisons to Stan Lee and Alfred Hitchcock. Werewolf at Dusk, appearing fifteen years later, is his homage to ageing-gracefully or otherwise. The three stories in this collection are linked, Small writes, "by the dread of things internal". In the title story, an adaptation of Lincoln Michel's much-loved short, the dread is that of a man who has reached old age with something repellant-even bestial-in his nature. The spectre of old age also haunts the semi-autobiographical story "A Walk in the Old City", with its looming spiders and cascading brain-matter-a dreamscape that gives way to the ominous environs of 1930s Berlin in the final story, a reinterpretation of Jean Ferry's "The Tiger in Vogue". As fluid as manga and rife with unsettling imagery, Werewolf at Dusk affirms Small's place as a modern master of graphic fiction.

A savage portrayal of male adolescence gone awry, like no other work of recent fiction or film.
