The Sturgeon General Recommends Adam Norris

The Sturgeon General is an anthology of comedic writing, compiling short works of fiction and non-fiction and other miscellany for the hilarious good of all. Each issue features the work of a single comedy writer. Adam Norris's short story 'One Black Stone' features a post-rapture world suffering from seven strange plagues. But it turns out He has a sense of humour, and His plagues include a wave of Chihuahuas and dress hats. Now that the faithful have all ascended, John Parliament is left in the apocalypse with his shitty job, unfaithful wife and Kevin Costner obsessed friend. And the seventh and final plague is just around the corner. 'One Black Stone' is funny, sad and strangely beautiful.
