CABBAGE LANGUAGE, the first book from Robert Duncan Gray, collects Gray's debut novella THE SON OF THE SUN with AMATEUR PORNOGRAPHY, a selection of the author's best poetic works from his career thus far. Born in England, raised in Germany, and then transplanted into America in his early teens, Robert Duncan Gray has taken his unique concept of identity and created the stunningly original character of Solomon Thunderbeast, the protagonist of THE SON OF THE SUN. In this fantastic novella we follow Solomon and a small group of people as they try to decide who they are in the wake of a vague tragedy, struggling greatly under the tyranny of The General, a petty Napoleonic man who has forced his way into a leadership role and since dominated this collection of lost souls. Equal parts funny, sad, and discomforting, THE SON OF THE SUN will burrow itself into your mind and stay with you for weeks to come. AMATEUR PORNOGRAPHY is a collection of poems that dares you to define it. Riding the line between sentimental and dismissive, these poems make friends of strangers and strangers out of friends, using loneliness and death to bring us together and prove we are alive. But really, they're just poems, so who cares, whatever. The fourth book from HOUSEFIRE Books, CABBAGE LANGUAGE is as refreshing as it is original, and a must-read for fans of flash novels.
