Congratulations to Roy Kesey for his collection All Over, which will be published by Dzanc Books in October 2007:

Dzanc Books is proud to announce we have found the book that will become our first title: Roy Kesey’s extraordinary debut short story collection, All Over. Dzanc Books will publish All Over in October 2007.

Roy Kesey has been hailed as one our best young writers, and All Over presents 19 of his most original and provocative stories. George Saunders called Kesey’s writing, “beautiful and powerful … mythic, vivid, heart-rending.” Roy’s work has appeared in over 50 top flight journals, including Alaska Quarterly Review, Mississippi Review, and The Georgia Review. Several of the stories in All Over have previously appeared in journals such as Kenyon Review, McSweeney’s, Other Voices, and The Iowa Review.
