Purchase options and add-ons
A man's midlife crisis unfolding in a taxidermy factory. A widower and his baby daughter visited by demons. A homunculus climbing out of the skull of a woman's sick father. These stories exist in the borderlands between literary and genre, injecting strange and speculative elements into the mundane. Creatures, spirits, ghosts, robots, superheroes, and the Devil himself populate the pages, as elements of satire, horror, and science fiction enter the everyday tragedies of love, death, and loss. With odes to jazz and cyberpunk, spanning Pittsburgh to Argentina, Stop Me If You've Heard This One Before is twelve tales of the weird, including a previously unpublished story and novelette.

Editorial Reviews
Review
By turns enigmatic, funny, and terrifying, Brandon Getz has crafted a daring, expansive debut collection. For lovers of realism, satire, speculative fiction, and psychological horror, the genre-bending Stop Me If You've Heard This One Before has something for everyone.
-Taylor Grieshober, author of Off Days
Brandon Getz is to magical realism what the electric guitar is to music-a thunderous narrative force, transforming folk tales into power ballads and reenergizing stock characters. Lyrical and improvisatory, Stop Me If You've Heard This One Before showcases Getz's many literary rhythms. These stories are grungy. They're lo-fi. And you'll want to listen straight to the end.
-Robert Isenberg, author of Curse of the Qattara
Stop Me If You've Heard This One Before hopscotches around your psyche with stories to fit every mood. From laugh-aloud funny to utterly heartbreaking, this is a fantastic collection that never lets up.
-Gwendolyn Kiste, author of Reluctant Immortals
Stop Me If You've Heard This One Before is twelve tales of visitation, hauntings by demons and decaying code, house spirits and homunculi. Brandon Getz has written a beautiful book of magic and loss.
-Samuel Ligon, author of Miller Cane: A True & Exact History
Getz's M.O. is to take genre forms and then mercilessly humanize them until they start to feel like Chekhov. A++
-Ben Loory, author of Tales of Falling and Flying
