Micah Kim

“In his stellar debut, Micah Kim channels the uncanny with a doomsday prophet’s dread, the artful rhythms of a jazz musician, and the precision of a poet. These brilliant, unsettling stories arrive on glittering, jet-black wings, ready to roost in mind for years to come.”

KEIJA PARSINNEN, author of The Ruins of Us and The Unraveling of Mercy Louis
“In Micah Kim’s stories, you are rarely settled. You do not have a firm grasp on the world you exist in. You are at times adrift at sea, in the clutches of the Weird, in a town whose lore keeps citizens alive forever. The gift of Kim’s work is his fearlessness to take us into the depths of the human psyche. Though otherworldly, these stories locate us in allegory that makes us consider what it means to be alive and breathing on this planet that seems more fiction.”
