Descriere magazin:
FEATURING A BRAND NEW STORY What\'s special about \'Cat
Person, \' and the rest of the stories in You Know You Want This , is the author\'s expert control of language, character, story--her ability to write stories that feel told, and yet so unpretentious and accessible that we think they must be true. --The New York Times Book Review
Kristen Roupenian isn\'t just an uncannily great writer, she also knows things about the human psyche--things that I always supposed I would learn at some point, but never did...The world has made a lot more sense since reading this book. --Miranda July, New York Times bestselling author If you think you know what this collection will be like, you\'re wrong. These stories are sharp and perverse, dark and bizarre, unrelenting and utterly bananas. I love them so, so much. --Carmen Maria Machado, National Book Award Finalist and author of Her Body and
Other Parties A compulsively readable collection of short stories that explore the complex--and often darkly funny--connections between gender, sex, and power across genres. Previously published as You Know You Want This , Cat
Person and
Other Stories brilliantly explores the ways in which women are horrifying as much as it captures the horrors that are done to them. Among its pages are a couple who becomes obsessed with their friend hearing them have sex, then seeing them have sex...until they can\'t have sex without him; a ten-year-old whose birthday party takes a sinister turn when she wishes for something mean; a woman who finds a book of spells half hidden at the library and summons her heart\'s desire: a nameless, naked man; and a self-proclaimed biter who dreams of sneaking up behind and sinking her teeth into a green-eyed, long-haired, pink-cheeked coworker. Spanning a range of genres and topics--from the mundane to the murderous and supernatural--these are stories about sex and punishment, guilt and anger, the pleasure and terror of inflicting and experiencing pain. These stories fascinate and repel, revolt and arouse, scare and delight in equal measure. And, as a collection, they point a finger at you, daring you to feel uncomfortable--or worse, understood--as if to say, You want this, right? You know you want this.
