A fusion of real and imagined Hollywood, Masha Tupitsyn’s Beauty Talk & Monsters is a debut collection of stories told through the movies. Equally influenced by Brian De Palma and Kathy Acker, Tupitsyn moves fluidly through space, time, and a range of cinematic frameworks, and cuts through the cynical glamour and illusion of Hollywood to a soft, secret heart. Intimate and intellectual, Tupitsyn’s stories play with the cinema’s most popular icons and images.
