Author Dale Brumfield thinks that Richmond has always had a palpable aura of strangeness. His new short story collection, “King Size Peggy & Other Stories,” tells nine dark-humored tales that he says fit only too perfectly in River City. “If you love the weirdness of Richmond, especially old Richmond, this book will be right up your alley,” says the writer, researcher and cultural historian [also an occasional contributor to Style Weekly] and a twice-nominated Library of Virginia book honoree.
