From the award-winning author of Music Through the Floor and Model Home, a riveting and profoundly moving story collection by a writer &;uncannily in tune with the heartbreak and absurdity of domestic life&; (Los Angeles Times).

A boy on the edge of adolescence fears his mother might be a robot; a psychotically depressed woman is entrusted with taking her niece and nephew trick or treating; a reluctant dad brings his baby to a coke-fueled party;

a teenage boy tries to prevent his mother from putting his estranged father&;s dogs to sleep. Ranging from a youth arts camp to an aging punk band&;s reunion tour, from a dystopian future where parents no longer exist to a ferociously independent bookstore, Last Day on Earth revolves around the endlessly complex, frequently surreal system that is family.

Eric Puchner, the author hailed as &;technically gifted and emotionally insightful&; (The New York Times Book Review), and someone who &;puts the story back in short story&; (San Francisco Chronicle Book Review), delivers a gloriously original, utterly memorable collection that invokes both the comedy and tragedy of our lifelong endeavor to come of age.
