How to Get Along with Women
Description
Longlisted for the 2013 Scotiabank Giller Prize
A sharply original debut collection, How To Get Along With Women
showcases Elisabeth de Mariaffi's keen eye and inventive voice. Infused
with a close and present danger, these stories tighten the knot around
power, identity, and sexuality, and draw the reader into the pivotal
moments where-for better or for worse-we see ourselves for what we truly
are.
"How to Get Along With Women is at once stunning and daring."--Canada Arts Connect
"De Mariaffi's writing is biting and captivating."--The Book Stylist
