About This Book
"These gutsy and postfeminist stories will elicit the shock of recognition from women and may reveal to men something about the further regions of the female psyche."--BOOK JACKET.
"By turns graphic, funny, and moving, the urban tales present characters who are teetering on the edge. Indifferent or absent lovers, drinking and smoking too much, loneliness, paranoia, a desire that is always fresh in spite of the facts, rage, and obsession - this is the macabre landscape of these very unusual and unrestrained stories."--BOOK JACKET.
"In "Reading Sontag," Addonizio invades and recasts Susan Sontag's essay "The Pornographic Imagination" while describing a monumentally failed relationship. In "The Gift," a woman finds a dildo on the street and is magically transformed into a man."--BOOK JACKET.
