Recommended Reading.
Love Me Back by Merritt Tierce
“Brilliant, Devastating.” The New York Times Book Review
Ordinary Girls by Jaquira Díaz
“A life story of astonishing honesty and beauty and power, a memoir of breath and rhythm and hurricane lightning and blood red struggle...” - Karen Russell
Follow Me To Ground by Sue Rainsford
"Beautiful and terrifying." —The Sunday Times
Deathless by Catherynne M. Valente
“A clever and often beautifully written fusion of a Russian fairytale and Russian history. Valente’s invention and ambition are extraordinary.” — The Times
Her Body and Other Parties by Carmen Maria Machado
“[These stories] vibrate with originality, queerness, sensuality and the strange.” —Roxane Gay
The Particular Sadness of Lemon Cake by Aimee Bender
“Oddly beautiful. . . . Will tempt you to see what talented writers can do when they rip little tears in the fabric of reality.” —The Washington Post
Cruddy by Lynda Barry
“A work of daredevil literary wizardry.” — Booklist
Age of Blight: Stories by Kristine Ong Muslim
"I think there's a reasonable comparison to Kelly Link here, but where Link keeps her tongue firmly in cheek throughout, Kristine Ong Muslim succeeds in perfectly balancing her stories on the line between disturbing and ridiculous." -- Jeff Raymond, The Artolater
Justine by Iben Mondrup
"When Mondru's prose is ablaze, cruising around with her inside a bruised and beaten artist’s soul is a veritable party. . . . By God she's a great prose stylist full of character." — Politiken
