In the twelve unforgettable tales of Lesser Known Monsters of the 21st Century, the strange is made familiar and the familiar strange, such that a girl growing wings on her legs feels like an ordinary rite of passage, while a bug-infested house becomes an impossible, Kafkaesque nightmare. Each story builds a new world all its own: a group of children steal a haunted doll; a runaway bride encounters a sea monster; a vendor sells toy boxes that seemingly control the passage of time; an insomniac is seduced by the Sandman. These visions of modern life wrestle with themes of death and technological consequence, guilt and sexuality, and unmask the contradictions that exist within all of us.

Mesmerizing, electric, and wholly original, Kim Fu's Lesser Known Monsters of the 21st Century blurs the boundaries of the real and fantastic, offering intricate and surprising insights into human nature.

 

Kim Fu is the author of For Today I Am a Boy which won the Edmund White Award for Debut Fiction and was a finalist for the PEN/Hemingway Award, as well as a New York Times Book Review Editor's Choice. Her second novel, The Lost Girls of Camp Forevermore, was a finalist for the Washington State Book Award and the OLA Evergreen Award. Fu's writing has appeared in Granta, the Atlantic, the New York Times, Hazlitt, and the TLS. She lives in Seattle.

A pup favorite and has held up well!
Color: Yellow
My adult dogs really like this treat feeder and love working to get the goodies out of it! It’s held up well over many months despite their biting and gnawing on it, so a good purchase overall. It’s also different than the usual Kongs so adds some variety to their feeder puzzle repertoire to keep up the diversity of mental stimulation.

Not tough enough
Color: Red
Finding durable chew toys for my pup is a challenge. When I placed a medium dog biscuit inside this, it kept him busy for awhile. But then I noticed small pieces of the toy around the house and discovered that he had managed to shred it. I've since discarded it and continue to search for toys guaranteed to be safe for "aggressive chewers".

Loves it
Color: Red
He loves this thing. He was able to chew some pieces off, but otherwise it is very durable. He likes to bounce it around to get treats out of the middle and the holes on the sides is where additional treats can be placed. It washes up fairly easy . Perfect size for my 40 pound dog

Keeps dogs busy.
Color: Orange
The dogs love this ball. They are afraid when it vibrates but as soon as it jumps and moves around, they are on it. They will play with it for quite awhile. Charge lasts for a long time. Very durable. This dog can tear anything apart but it's still in one piece.
