"Linked short stories about families, nascent queers, and self-deluded utopians explore the moral ordinary strangeness in their characters' overlapping lives. A woman impersonates a nun online, with unexpected consequences. In a gentrifying neighborhood, tensions escalate around two events planned for the same day. The barista girlfriend of a tech billionaire survives a zombie apocalypse only to face spending her life with the paranoid super-rich. The linked stories in Householders move effortlessly between the commonplace and the fantastic: from a university campus, to an underground bunker, to a commune in the woods, to Toronto and back again, and mine the moral hazards inherent in all the ways we try and fail to save each other and ourselves."--Publisher.
