Fiction or memoir? Stephen Elliott’s blistering new collection inhabits a mysterious area in between. As with all his work, these stories have the raw ring of truth filtered through Elliott’s downbeat poetic sensibility. No subject is too controversial, no image too taboo to put to paper in these brilliant first-person narratives. Acclaimed by the New York Times, Elliott here confirms his status as a major young writer of a kind of literary fiction that recalls the work of Genet and Bukowski.
