by David Ewald (Author)

From the author of He Who Shall Remain Shameless and The Fallible: Stories comes a tale of a divided family, a divided mind, and a divided nation...


I sing a song for my sister, who used to be my brother, who sings a song for me...


So begins the story of identical twins Stan and Jeremy Pangborn, who wrestle with one another over control of this narrative. They tell of their conflicted adolescence, the genesis of Stan's religious obsessions, his search for both separation and absolution. But as Stan delves deeper into the folds of extremism, his grip on reality begins to unravel and his desperate attempts to control the narrative spiral into instability.


The Book of Stan is about identity, sexuality, faith, fractured loyalty, freedom, and the lure of extremism. The Pangborn Twins' story serves as a reflection on the flawed systems of power that shape our lives. It urges readers to confront the shadows of hypocrisy at all levels-from the living room to the Situation Room.


Timely and at times terrifying, The Book of Stan is a gripping exploration of the ties that bind us and the forces that seek to tear us apart. In a world where personal and sexual freedoms are uncertain, this short novel is certain to provoke thought and stir emotion.
