Reality and delusion collide in this hilariously tragic story about one family's absurd secrets and the dreams they hide. The Day Aunt Gina Came to Town�is a literary black comedy that puts a playful spin on the idea that 'we are what we pretend to be.'�Taking its cue from surrealist notions of a reality substantially conjured by the unconscious, this novel examines the private and separate ways we construct and experience our lives among those closest to us.
John Schoneboom is the founding editor of Bratum Books� Uncommonalities series of short stories that share a common first line, to which he also shamelessly contributes his own efforts. He holds MAs in creative writing (Northumbria) and science, technology, and international affairs (George Washington University) and a BA focusing on US foreign policy in Central America (Hampshire College). Originally from New York, Schoneboom now resides in Newcastle upon Tyne, UK.
