the great collapse of the finite revolution

strange and surreal is totenbett, arizona: steeped in local history and lore, home to world-renowned artist henry von claude, and proud to house "the bar at the center of the universe." also served as ground zero for the beginning of the end of the world we thought we knew: because totenbett is located very particularly, with direct access to the space between the edges of everything and nothing.

spanning nearly three decades if you don't count the town's founding history, these eight loosely connected stories each emphasize totenbett's bizarre charm, and how it affects both residents and out-of-towners alike. do make an attempt to drive through on your next road trip ("show your love for the manhattan dove!"), and be sure to grab a bite at jonathan's landing before you go: best fish fry in town!
