Short story collection, best described as "weird fiction". Some faves of mine with super brief content descriptions to help the serendipity: "Saecken" is the best horror I've ever read. Also like "Three Moments of an Explosion" (drugs and time), "The Condition of New Death" (sudden rupture in how the world is), "The Dowager of Bees" (weird structures in the back of the world), "The Crawl" and "Escapee" (both very short film trailer storyboards), "The Bastard Prompt" (so weird, but I love the description of the relationship of the protagonists), "Four Final Orpheuses" (only a page long and so good), "Dreaded Outcome" (therapy)
