Chrome Kisses is packed with the fury of our aggressively anxious times. Pulp fiction comedy noirs of lost lovers, triumphant crime sprees, justifiable revenge, and drained bank accounts.
In the title story, Foster, with all the gentleness of a buzz saw, takes on a trio of wannabe tough guys. In “Tulip,” Dall once ate up the town on crime sprees, but without Lake, his vanished partner, he’s left taking punches and reliving past glories. Meanwhile, over in “The Poodle Springs,” Lake’s gone into hiding, trapped in an upscale neighbourhood plagued by dust storms as she tails a shifty barista. Over the course of a week, the characters of Chrome Kisses get lost in the past, work in underground wrestling organizations, and pull a robbery or two to buy some lunch.
Across eight connected stories, Jamie Popowich observes with humour and sympathy the lives of supercharged women and men running on empty in a world they no longer recognize.
