Parker Knight and I have one thing in common. We both take a lot of shots. My new job as team photographer for the Houston Snowhawks comes with a lot of perks. The biggest one? Taking as many pictures of Parker as I want. The rookie forward is everything I’m not— tall, quick, and outgoing. I’m happiest hiding behind a camera. He lives in the spotlight. Am I ready to play in the big leagues? Or is this game over for my career and my heart? Pucking Wild is a fast-paced hockey romance steamy enough to melt the ice. A shy, curvy photographer meets her match in the new hotshot team rookie.

In You Will Never Be Forgotten, Mary South explores how technology can both collapse our relationships from within and provide opportunities for genuine connection. Formally inventive, darkly absurdist, savagely critical of the increasingly fraught cultural climates we inhabit, these 10 stories also find hope in fleeting interactions and moments of tenderness. They reveal our grotesque selfishness and our intense need for love and acceptance, and the psychic pain that either shuts us off or allows us to discover our deepest reaches of empathy.

Fair warning: Raised in Captivity does not slot into a smooth preexisting groove. If Saul Steinberg and Italo Calvino had adopted a child from a Romanian orphanage and raised him on Gary Larsen and Thomas Bernhard, he would still be nothing like Chuck Klosterman. They might be good company, though. Funny, wise and weird in equal measure, Raised in Captivity bids fair to be one of the most original and exciting story collections in recent memory, a fever graph of our deepest unvoiced hopes, fears and preoccupations.
