No. 2 in the Two Cranes Press chapbook series is Off the Map, a mini-collection by Big Fish author Daniel Wallace. Off the Map gathers four of Wallace's particularly weird and fantastical short stories in one place, presented with high-quality printing and a beautiful perfect-bound cover. Wallace himself provided the cover and all interior illustrations, each one a perfect companion to the stories inside. (Cover design and color by Janet Chui.)

Off the Map will take you to places you've never before visited, from far-flung cultures that obey different rules, to our own everyday existences, but tweaked slightly to show the magic of our normally mundane lives, the everyday of hairy men, conversing audio language tapes, and the very unique and sometimes inscrutable relationship of a man to his father. Each of these stories showcases a phenomenal command of the written word, and an eye for the bizarre. Whether they take place close to home or on the other side of the world, each is located off the map of normal perception.

"Vacation," which is original to this collection, was anthologized in volume 19 of The Year's Best Fantasy and Horror.
