.The short stories in God's Autobio, Rolli's debut collection, are impossible, quite probable, and everything in between. There's a story about a man with a ridiculously huge coupon. About an elderly woman who befriends a frenzied robotic chimpanzee. An overzealous, if increasingly masochistic butler. Plus twenty-three other surreal, sublime, and satirical creations by Canadian writer/poet/artist Rolli, recipient of the John Kenneth Galbraith Literary Award, and one of the winners of the 2008/2009 Commonwealth Short Story Competition.
"Rolli's short stories carry an inimitable signature of imagination, understanding and humor, delivered with a skill that is both literary and entertaining. Bravo!" --T.D. Johnston, Short Story America
