William Standish is a distinguished retired journalist and political commentator, who has become a pillar of the establishment. When he dies of a heart attack in a Devon lane, none of his family knows why he was there. They descend on the nearest town to discover what happened. His daughter Marianne is consumed by religion and concerned that her father has a proper burial. Her brother Curtis is a photographer and uses the visit as an opportunity for a photo shoot. He takes a more jaundiced view of his father. Curtis's grandmother Mrs Somerset-Cunliffe insists that the body is not that of her son, but because she is losing touch with reality, nobody takes much notice. She is determined to investigate and enlists a reluctant Marianne to help. Even Curtis becomes curious when two strangers seem intent on befriending the family. It is left to Willie's widow Celia to keep her disparate family together, though this proves increasingly difficult.

Is Daddy Really Dead? By: E.L. Hutton Is Daddy Really Dead? She’s lost him, her love, her husband, Robert. He left with friends on a weekend trip to solve a childhood mystery; then there was a car accident, and Robert is gone. They say he’s dead, but she doesn’t really believe that, doesn’t feel it. Is Daddy Really Dead? follows the haunting story of a family seeking answers as they face off against rich and powerful adversaries intent on maintaining the mystery and covering their tracks. There are no real clues as to what happened to him, simply a wrecked car, no body that his wife or family can see, no police or hospital records, even his parents don’t seem as devastated as one would expect. All research comes to a dead end. But never give up. Listen to your heart, and perhaps life will turn around suddenly. This is when we discover that we have the strength to go on. It is when we feel that life has taken our dreams, and all control out of our life, that something deep inside of us compels us to keep moving forward. This is God’s gift to many who have experienced sudden and drastic changes in their life that they never planned on.

The Dead Father is a gargantuan half-dead, half-alive, part mechanical, wise, vain, powerful being who still has hopes for himself--even while he is being dragged by means of a cable toward a mysterious goal. In this extraordinary novel, marked by the imaginative use of language that influenced a generation of fiction writers, Donald Barthelme offered a glimpse into his fictional universe. As Donald Antrim writes in his introduction, "Reading The Dead Father, one has the sense that its author enjoys an almost complete artistic freedom . . . a permission to reshape, misrepresent, or even ignore the world as we find it . . . Laughing along with its author, we escape anxiety and feel alive."

Death. It's a part of life and something we all must accept. Whether it be our own demise or losing a loved one, the experience of death is both sobering and surreal. My Dad is Dead is a group of related short stories that explore that dichotomy through the eyes of a kid. In George Verongos's second book, he turns childhood memories into "fictionally enhanced" tales (he made us say that, he's trying to make it a thing). With one foot in memoir and the other in fiction, My Dad is Dead recounts the experiences of the author as a young boy (I always wanted to say that) growing up as the last of four children, and the only boy, to Greek-American parents. Set in the Midwest, the breadbasket of America, during the 70s and 80s, My Dad Is Dead takes you on a journey of preadolescence and all its trials and tribulations culminating in the sudden death of the author's father. If you like your accents thick, your humor dark, and your tears jerked(?), My Dad is Dead and Other Funny Stories is for you.
