Now Shipping: EYE by David J. Schow

Cimarron Street Books is pleased to bring you an updated edition of David J. Schow's fifth short story collection — back in print after 20 years — and for the first time in paperback!

You might perceive EYE as an unblinking scrutiny of sex, obsession, idol worship, penny miracles, policing the birthrate, mysterious phone calls in the dead of night, pornography, wrongheaded faith, or the price of devotion. With whom — or what — are you really crawling into bed, in the dark?

Or you might view it as a phantasmagoric kaleidoscope of sex, monsters, empaths, telepaths, aliens, peewee crime kingpins, otherworldly lovers, sentient art, UFOs, "rectosonics" and/or Mexican wrestling.

You could behold EYE as a spectacle of serial love, hot-and-cold lust, betrayal, and relationships seen from both ends of the telescope. Or a long, hard look into killers from inside their POV (and out), murder, mayhem, death and things worse than death.

Or you could stop reading this hard sell and start eyeballing the thirteen stories that comprise EYE ... including two completely new tales that have never before seen print, luscious illustrations by Thomas Canty, and a sparkling new Afterword, all prepared specially for this edition.

EYE. Feast yours!

Now Shipping: SEEING RED by David J. Schow


Brain-scorching review hyperbole!
Pithy critical commentary!
Big-name blurb mongering!
Hardcore buy-or-die sales pitch hysteria!


You'll find none of that in Seeing Red, David J. Schow’s very first collection of short stories, back in print from Cimarron Street Books after twenty years.

Seeing Red features the World Fantasy Award-winning story, “Red Light,” the Twilight Zone Magazine prize-winner “Coming Soon to a Theatre Near You,” plus eleven more tales as startling, as disturbing, as provocative and unnerving.

Between these covers you’ll also find an introduction by best-selling fantasist T.E.D. Klein, a bevy of original illustrations (including previously unpublished cover concepts by Thomas Canty for the 1990 paperback edition), relevant magazine covers, an all-new interview — “Between Light & Shadow” — in which DJS recalls the era during which most of these tales appeared, and an updated and expanded Afterword. Not to mention, and an all-new cover by Tim Bradstreet!

Full contents include:
Introduction by T.E.D. Klein 
Red Light 
Bunny Didn’t Tell Us 
Incident on a Rainy Night in Beverly Hills 
The Woman’s Version 
Lonesome Coyote Blues
