This is a furious blaze of a book that will rough you up and reorder your sense of the world and what's possible in it. It's a debut for the ages. Read it.-Laura van den Berg, author of Find Me Nikki is the most determined young woman in the North Carolina hills. Determined not to let deadbeats and dropouts set her future. Determined to use whatever tools she can get her hands on to shape the world to her will. Determined to preserve her family's domination of the local drug trade. Nikki is thirteen years old. Opening with a fatal plunge from a high cliff, Young God rushes forward as it charts Nikki's battles against isolation and victimhood. Nikki may be young, but she's a fast learner, and soon she learns exactly how to wield her powers over the people around her. The only thing slowing her down is the inheritance she's been promised but can't seem to find, buried somewhere in those hills and always just out of reach.A coming of age story by way of Breaking Bad (The Rumpus), Young God is a brash and electrifying novel that demands your attention and refuses to be forgotten.

Описание: The poems in Katherine E. Youngs Woman Drinking Absinthe concern themselves with transgressions, and the various ways that women in particular can be lured by love into self-delusion and self-harm. From the naive girl who willfully ignores evidence of Bluebeards crimes, to Manets dispirited barmaid at the Folies-Bergere, to the narrator of the books opening sequence, who sacrifices domestic security for a passionate lover who will eventually abuse her, the women of these poems brush abandon convention at their peril, even though convention also imperils their bodies, their spirits, and their art. In this second collection, Young - whose earlier Day of the Border Guards explored Russian history and literature - continues to employ what shes learned from the great Russian writers she often translates. Like Marina Tsvetaeva, who makes a cameo appearance here, Young finds literary touchstones among sources as varied as German folk tales, Greek drama, and the Old Testament. Whether tracing the elements of Euclidean geometry or the terrain of a Civil War battlefield in Tennessee, these poems ask the hard questions: Why does love fail? How can art come from pain? What heals the soul?
