Описание: In her debut story collection Heartbreaker, Maryse Meijer peels back the crust of normalcy and convention, unmasking the fury and violence we are willing to inflict in the name of love and loneliness. Her characters are a strange ensemble--a feral child, a girl raised from the dead, a possible pedophile--who share in vulnerability and heartache, but maintain an unremitting will to survive. Meijer deals in desire and sex, femininity and masculinity, family and girlhood, crafting a landscape of appetites threatening to self-destruct. In beautifully restrained and exacting prose, she sets the marginalized free to roam her pages and burn our assumptions to the ground.

Описание: "Honest, exquisitely measured . . . inspiring in its reminder of the human spirit's capacity to endure."--The New York Times Book Review " An] astute study of family and place."--Washington Post Book World In this collection of autobiographical essays, Maryse Cond vividly evokes the relationships and events that gave her childhood meaning: discovering her parents' feelings of alienation; her first crush; a falling out with her best friend; the death of her beloved grandmother; her first encounter with racism. These gemlike vignettes capture the spirit of Cond 's fiction: haunting, powerful, poignant, and leavened with a streak of humor. Maryse Cond 's previous work includes the novels Windward Heights and Desirada, both available from Soho Press.
