Reviews
"The stories in Black Light are grimy and weird, surprising, utterly lush. . . . I loved every moment of this book." --Carmen Maria Machado, author of Her Body and Other Parties "In lithe, lyrical prose à la Amy Hempel and Noy Holland, Parsons's short fiction parses the addictions and desires of Texan girls and women, and will break your heart even as it makes you laugh." -- O, The Oprah Magazine "The bad-ass gals in these terrific stories are all attitude, and as funny and appealing in their imperfection and thwarted desire as you'll find in any fiction out there. Parsons opens and ends stories brilliantly. I just finished this book, and I'm going to read it again right away." --Amy Hempel, author of Sing to It "The very fact that Black Light exists in the world makes everything feel a little less bleak. These stories are funny and poignant and searching, full of taut poetry, not to mention the long pain and sharp joys of living and loving and lusting. In her debut collection, Kimberly King Parsons has put it all on the line, with a hell of a payoff." --Sam Lipsyte, author of Hark "Kimberly King Parsons's Black Light is savage, celestial, and gorgeous. Texas, dusty and sprawling, houses Parsons's pining, broken, twangy, and unforgettable characters. The prose shimmers into incantation. In this collection, Parsons dissects the guts of the soul, to show us how awful we all are and how crushingly beautiful." --Hannah Lillith Assadi, author of Sonora " Black Light is a work of thunderous virtuosity. Kimberly King Parsons's debut captures a kind of truth that could pass for memory if it weren't so steeped in Parsons's voice and whirring imagination, piercing and singular. A luminous fever dream and a modern day classic." --T Kira Madden, author of Long Live the Tribe of Fatherless Girls "Extraordinary, brutal, filled with wit and menace and charisma, Black Light stakes out a Texas by turns drably oppressive and shot through with ultra-HD colors. Contemptuous and empathetic, ill-mannered and sublime, Black Light is my favorite collection in years." --Mark Doten, author of Trump Sky Alpha " Black Light announces a remarkable talent. Parsons sees right into the maw of the flawed humans that live in her worlds, which is to say, she spies the humanity in all of us. These stories are at turns heartbreaking and hilarious; keen and imaginative. Plus, she's a prime prose stylist, one whose language never dips below flat-out amazing." --Mitchell S. Jackson, author of Survival Math, "There is a reckless kind of heat to the tender, broken characters in these stories. . . . Parsons is both unflinching and eloquent in her portrayals of people as they burn and rage." --Lauren Kane, The Paris Review "Parsons's debut crackles with the frenetic energy of the women who stalk its pages. . . . Parsons's characters are sharp and uncannily observed, bound up in elastic and electrifying prose. This is a first-rate debut." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) " Black Light is an unshakable debut, a collection of stories that will grip you under its spell until its closing notes. Compulsively readable, this book is as much a love letter to language as it is to the natural world, the darkened corners of desire, and the absurdities of girlhood. Gutsy, loud, and so very Texas, this one moved me in a tectonic way. You'll underline every sentence." --T Kira Madden, Bustle "In lithe, lyrical prose à la Amy Hempel and Noy Holland, Parsons's short fiction parses the addictions and desires of Texan girls and women, and will break your heart even as it makes you laugh." -- O, The Oprah Magazine "[An] assured debut. . . . Imbued with the expanses of their landscapes, Parson's dozen tales portray characters navigating unavoidable shifts in the realities of their lives." --Leah Strauss, Booklist "The bad-ass gals in these terrific stories are all attitude, and as funny and appealing in their imperfection and thwarted desire as you'll find in any fiction out there. Parsons opens and ends stories brilliantly. I just finished this book, and I'm going to read it again right away." --Amy Hempel, author of Sing to It "The very fact that Black Light exists in the world makes everything feel a little less bleak.

Synopsis
LONGLISTED FOR THE NATIONAL BOOK AWARD "The stories in Black Light are grimy and weird, surprising, utterly lush. . . . I loved every moment of this book." --Carmen Maria Machado, author of Her Body and Other Parties With raw, poetic ferocity, Kimberly King Parsons exposes desire's darkest hollows--those hidden places where most of us are afraid to look. In this debut collection of enormously perceptive and brutally unsentimental short stories, Parsons illuminates the ache of first love, the banality of self-loathing, the scourge of addiction, the myth of marriage, and the magic and inevitable disillusionment of childhood. Taking us from hot Texas highways to cold family kitchens, from the freedom of pay-by-the-hour motels to the claustrophobia of private school dorms, these stories erupt off the page with a primal howl--sharp-voiced, acerbic, and wise.

- h***l (805)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimo annoAcquisto verificatoExactly as described. The colors and fabric are soft. Very nice top. There was something strange about the delivery. Not with the seller, but I kept getting messages that the package could not be delivered because the address was wrong. I’ve gotten messages like this before. I just ignore them because they’re scams. I don’t know who’s creating them, but they are what they are. Anyway, I eventually received the item, and the address was correct. I would purchase from this seller again.NWT Lucky Brand Floral Peasant Top Sz Large (N° 203866584320)
