Strange Monsters by Peter Brewer & Bonnie Jo Stufflebeam
I’ve been a fan of Bonnie Jo Stufflebeam’s short fiction for a few years.

Strange Monsters (2016) is a music-and-words collaboration between Stufflebeam and Peter Brewer, a jazz musician and Stufflebeam’s partner. Over melodies both slow and easy, and chaotic and exciting, a cast of actors reads five short stories and five poems by Stufflebeam.
