Bridge Eight Press to publish duncan b. barlow’s new collection of stories
Bridge Eight Press is excited to announce that we’ve acquired Awry by duncan b. barlow and will be publishing the story collection in the spring of 2025.
The stories in Awry are gathered around the ideas of things that are amiss, askew, or in other words, not quite where they should be. It’s a collection that explores both perceived and tangible misplacement, featuring sentences that shake each individual page.
duncan b. barlow is the author of five books of fiction including A Dog Between Us (Stalking Horse 2019), The City, Awake (Stalking Horse 2017), Of Flesh and Fur (The Cupboard 2016). His work has appeared in The Denver Quarterly, The North American Review, The Collagist, Banango Street, The Fanzine, Sleeping Fish, Word Riot, Meat for Tea, and Matter Press among others. He teaches at the University of South Dakota, where he is founder and publisher of Astrophil Press and the managing editor of South Dakota Review.
Before writing, duncan b. barlow was a touring musician who played with Endpoint, By The Grace of God, Guilt, the aasee lake, The Lull Account, Good Riddance, and many more. His interviews about music and subculture have been published in academic texts, books, and magazines such as: Straight Edge: Clean-Living Youth, Hardcore Punk, and Social Change on Rutgers University Press, We Owe You Nothing: Punk Planet Collected Interviews on Akashic, and Burning Fight on Revelation Records.
