Bücher von Peter Cherches

Whistler's Mother's Son collects over 100 prose pieces of varying length and styles-from minimalism to satire to noir to children's tale to abstraction to surrealism. The cast of characters includes Hamlet, Gertrude Stein, Fred Flintstone, Mr. Mondrian, a man with two mustaches, and an eternally confused Peter Cherches.

There's a thin line between memoir and fiction, and Peter Cherches walks it in Autobiography Without Words. We follow the main character through the adventures of life, from childhood crimes and punishments to trips to India and Mars. This book will break your heart, mess with your head and have you rolling on the floor, all at once.

Fiction. The five sequences of LIFT YOUR RIGHT ARM are minimalist novels of sorts--thought- provoking, mostly deadpan prose that is often darkly humorous. From the stark relationship studies of "Bagatelles" and "Dirty Windows" to the wry observations of "Mr. Deadman" and "A Certain Clarence," the stars of these pieces are Peter Cherches' unique takes on Everyman and Everywoman--dead or alive--navigating a world in which very little is what it seems.
