Zoom “I dove into piles of leaves in a park because it was my last chance before the snow and if my friend and I were going to enjoy the city properly on the holiday, unbound from obligation and other people, we had to do whatever everyone else was not doing. Birds flying in flocks circled above the streets and between buildings, black outlines against a bright, clouded sky, and they landed on ledges and rested and did the same thing over again.” Robb Todd, “The City From a Bridge”

Robb Todd lit fwriction : review Steal Me for Your Stories fiction
January 30th, 2012

“What makes Steal Me [for Your Stories] great is that it completely succeeds in what all those other youth-in-the-city short story collections merely attempt – and fail – to do. Steal Me doesn’t just capture the absurdity of drunken young people in the 21st century, it doesn’t try to seek triumph from exposing the inner workings of sexually active minds, it doesn’t force truth out of vomit, cramped apartments, and antidepressants. Steal Me brings to light what those other writers apparently have forgotten is just as true and as important as those ridiculous, depressing moments: the euphoric bits of life.”

—A.K. Mayhew, review of Steal Me for Your Stories by Robb Todd
