Michael Harris Cohens debut collection, The Eyes: A Novella & Stories, is heartbreaking, horrifying, and utterly original. No one else writes noir quite like Cohen, with his genius turns of phrase and, as Stephen Graham Jones says, incisions into language that [are] both intimidating and casual. The great Robert Coover calls Cohen a noir master.Here are people caught in the gears of the social machine and mangled by their own desire. The Eyes explores how peoples lives can change with a single hairtrigger quiver, leaving them wrecked and brooding almost without their knowing anything has happened. Dark and smart and unapologetic, this is transgressive fiction at its uncomfortable best. - Brian Evenson
