Aprašymas

The ordinary and the extraordinary merge in the strange and complex lives of young women in this "frequently luminous" debut short story collection (Kirkus Reviews).



Unsettling and perceptive, this debut story collection challenges our notion of American girlhood in all its delusions, conflicting messages, and treacherous terrain. Alternately wide-eyed, wise, and mysterious, the girls at the center of these stories leave their realities behind for curious new places where the barrier between real and unreal begins to blur. Still others hover over their Midwestern homes in interior worlds of their own creation.

The stories in Elegies for Uncanny Girls take place at a boundary where both the girls' bodies and their narratives belong either to themselves or to the cultures that surround them. A young woman whose body continually shrinks and expands moves to Los Angeles to make a movie about tragic merpeople; bewildered and seeking guidance, a new mom strikes up a conversation with a woman with detachable hands; and spurred on by a new ally who might just be a figment of her imagination, a girl decides she can choose her own friends.
"Brisk, satisfying, and fiercely observant." --Publishers Weekly
