| Too weird to be true? Not at all.Collecting stories about weird deaths is a decidedly sick hobby. "Yet, strangely life-affirming," says Cynthia Ceilán, the author of Unlucky Stiffs. "Nothing makes you want to embrace the quiet loveliness of life's ordinary moments more than the prospect of a spectacularly dumb death."Consider the fates of these unwitting headline-makers: Randle Cunningham, who stopped at a Taco Bell drive-thru window with a handgun tucked into his pants. When he leaned over to grab the loose change to pay for his food, the gun discharged into his groin, killing him instantly. Jose Ricart, who walked up and down a busy street carrying a sign that read, the end of the world is nigh. And so it was, at least for him. A truck ran over and killed him.Ceilán's latest collection of true stories offers another shamelessly irreverent romp through the unenviable final adventures of some of the world's unluckiest stiffs. |
