How I Got My Scar

by David E. McAdams

What if the same moment, one cut across the cheek, were told by Dickens, Hemingway, Morrison, or Kafka?

In this inventive and illuminating collection, David E. McAdams brings together a chorus of literary voices, each story a tribute to a different master of English prose. Though the plots vary, every tale turns on a single shared event: the protagonist receives a scar on their cheek. Yet no two scars feel the same. Tone, style, structure, and worldview transform a simple injury into something mythic, comic, tragic, or surreal.
