The Year of the Stolen Bicycle Tire and Other Stories is a collection of weird, beautiful literary fiction containing four stories based in the fictional college town of Martinsville, Florida, as well as Athens, Greece, and Grandfather Mountain in North Carolina.
The title story concerns a philosophy professor bent on taking revenge against a bike tire thief, who also happens to be one of his students. In “An Apartment Hunter’s Guide to Martinsville,” a young woman attempts, without luck, to find an apartment and perhaps a friend in her newly-adopted city. “Mile-High Bridge” tells of a couple climbing a mountain to give their cat a wilderness burial, and what they find along the way. Lastly, “The Gypsy” is about a couple in Athens, Greece, just after a city-wide riot, who find a woman who promises to rid them of their bad luck.
Andrew Kozma’s fiction has been published in DIAGRAM, The Cupboard, Fantasy Scroll, and Daily Science Fiction. His book of poems, City of Regret (Zone 3 Press, 2007), won the Zone 3 First Book Award.
