Jim Dayton

He Kept to Himself, Mostly Jim Dayton

Frustrated and disturbed by his surroundings, Jim Dayton writes about lifes peculiar characters. Mixed with Jims frantic style, lovers, killers, strippers, aliens, and even an appearance by Satan make this collection of short stories irreverent and thought-provoking. With his concentration on suburbia and its façade of perfection, Jim pokes at the shell until a small crack shows the unsettling truth. Dark, philosophical, and sometimes humorous, the stories examine life from some of the most skewed vantage points.
