The Anatomy of Rooms is a collection of strange, intimate stories about loss, family, identity, and the uneasy spaces between the living and the dead. A crossing guard continues protecting children long after the school has disappeared. A man discovers rooms growing inside his body. Birds claim legal occupancy of a lonely man's flesh. A family resurrects a dead son from the data he left behind. And at a livestock auction, something horrifyingly human is sold beneath the indifferent gaze of ordinary people.
Blending fabulism, speculative fiction, dark humor, and literary horror, these stories transform familiar places-homes, kitchens, roads, hospitals, workplaces-into landscapes where memory takes physical form and grief develops its own anatomy.
Tender, unsettling, and often absurd, The Anatomy of Rooms asks what remains of us when the people, places, and versions of ourselves we once knew are gone-and what happens when they refuse to leave.
