Description
Ben Marcus's bold new short story collection, Leaving the Sea, presents a world distorted from our own. Strange illnesses strike at random and people disappear without a trace.
In this labyrinthine world, Marcus has created a cast of disturbed, weary men, each struggling with their own isolation. From those who are frustrated by life's disappointments to those who advocate for self-inhumation, the stories in Leaving the Sea are both darkly funny and uniquely unsettling.
