"Pablo D'Stair is defining the new writer. There is NO ONE else. As reckless as Kerouac's 120-foot trace paper, D'Stair's independence from all of us needs to be studied and celebrated." (TONY BURGESS author of People Live Still In Cashtown Corners) Village Idiot Press presents the definitive editions of the collected novels, novella, and short stories of author Pablo D'Stair. The 42 volumes are presented in the chronological order of composition, 2000-2020. From OCTOBER PEOPLE: 'I wanted' Clarence went on 'an encounter. An encounter with another person, one meaningful, difficult if not impossible to forget. An encounter which would be more than a memory, would be a living desire. A woman, for example - to meet a woman, fall in love with her, long for her, think of her, only of her to feel the genuine presence of the romantic, not to mock it up - after all, why forget something that isn't real?' "D'Stair doesn't just write like a house afire, he writes like the whole city's burning, and these words he's putting on the page are the thing that can save us all." (STEPHEN GRAHAM JONES author of The Only Good Indian)
