Mac (Marisa) Crane
“Funny and bleak like a queer George Saunders, these stories weird up daily life . . . I love this book!”—Andrea Lawlor, author of Paul Takes the Form of a Mortal Girl
An employee at a hunting ground where people pay to act out hate crimes prepares to meet their girlfriend’s parents for the first time. A self-destructive client engages in an affair with their therapist, careening their relationship toward its inevitable breaking point. At a theme park where men pay to ogle women dressed as sirens, a mild-mannered boat attendant gets engaged to the star performer. And in the title story, a pregnant internet sex worker blackmails her clients into attending a disastrous party.
Nothing is off limits for Mac Crane as they rework classic stories of rejection, isolation, and connection to suggest that the so-called pervert, by existing in the margins of society, may be the one who sees the world most clearly. Crane brings their keen eye for the unsavory to seventeen transgressive stories that are as tantalizing and addictive as the characters’ experiences. A provocative and uproarious collection about pleasure, performance, and pain, Perverts is an exaltation of the awesome depravity of queer modernity.

“For fans of Rejection by Tony Tulathimutte, Mac Crane pushes the boundaries of queer fiction. The seventeen tantalising tales each imagine scenarios wilder than the last. . . . The collection leaves you wondering who the perverts really are: the characters in the book, or those of us with heteronormative privilege voyeuristically leering at their experiences?”—Service95
“Mac Crane wrote two of my favorite novels from the past three years . . . and I’m super excited to check out their story collection. They exhibit such a dexterity as a writer. . . . I guarantee this book will be one worth reading and should be on everyone’s radar.”—Chicago Review of Books, “Our Most Anticipated Books of 2026”
“The engine of Mac Crane’s Perverts is desire at work—how desire works on us, how work perverts desire. Funny and bleak like a queer George Saunders, these stories weird up daily life in the money economy, pitching their battles against rainbow capitalism and cisheteropatriarchy alike. I love this book!”—Andrea Lawlor, author of Paul Takes the Form of a Mortal Girl
“Beautifully weird and deeply, messily human, Perverts is the kind of collection that sticks to your ribs. I found myself drawn back to these astounding stories again and again, the work reverberating in my brain like delightfully horny church bells. It’s brilliant.”—Kristen Arnett, author of Stop Me If You’ve Heard This One
“A collection of charming, deeply felt stories running the gamut from imaginative sex work to unexpected voyeurism to meaningful connection between strangers. . . . This romp of a book is about queer and trans identity, queer parenthood, and the way technology changes relationships. Perverts is delightfully lively and hilarious, Crane an exciting, kinky, queer, speculative new voice in the art of the short story.”—Lydi Conklin, author of Songs of No Provenance
