Résumé: Delving into mythology, belief, and spirituality, Kevin Huizenga’s short stories are based in the lives of familiar characters confronting the textures of mortality in unique and sometimes peculiar ways. Huizenga fuses the most banal aspects of modern culture with its most looming questions in a consistently genial style. Light-hearted, but with a healthy dose of 19th century spine-tingling, the narratives presented in Curses are insightful portrayals of reality. Huizenga’s central character in his comics is Glenn Ganges, a seemingly middle class man living in the suburbs whose blank-eyed wonderment at everyday experiences brings together such diverse aspects of our world as golf, theology, late-night diners, parenthood, politics, Sudanese refugees and hallucinatory vision, into a complete experience as multifaceted as our own lives.
