Andrew Kaufman
A thief charges into a bank with a loaded gun, but he does not ask for money; what he asks for, instead, is the object of greatest significance currently in the possession of each patron. The thief then leaves, and the patrons all survive, but strange things soon begin to happen to them: One survivorâ€™s tattoo jumps off her ankle and chases her around; another wakes up to find that sheâ€™s made of candy; and Stacey Hinterland discovers that sheâ€™s shrinking, incrementally, a little every day, and nothing that her husband or son do can reverse the process. The Tiny Wife is a fable about losing yourself in circumstances and finding yourself in the the love of another.
