AdultsProgram Description
Author David Benjamin, who’s always been fascinated by Christmas, has been writing slightly offbeat yuletide tales since he was sixteen. Christmas in a Jugular Vein compiles 38 of his wildly variant and slightly transgressive holiday tales and poems, ranging from Bethlehem to the North Pole to the mean streets of New York City.
“This is a captivating, often irreverent, peek into the heart and creative mind of a master storyteller. Benjamin had me hooked with the first story, ‘The Little Red Dot.’ I continued turning pages to the end of the collection, chuckling at times and gasping occasionally … The author’s clever insights are woven throughout. You will not want to stop reading until the very end, and then, you will return to it from time to time.” — Nick Chiarkas, author of the award-winning novel Nunzio’s Way
