Paperback. Zustand: Good. Winner of the Bard Fiction Prize and a finalist for the PEN/Robert W. Bingham Prize for debut fiction, the Young Lions Fiction Award, and the Shirley Jackson Award for a single-author collection Joyce Carol Oates calls Clare Beams "wickedly sharp-eyed, wholly unpredictable&thinsp.&thinsp.&thinsp. a female / feminist voice for the twenty-first century." The literary, historic, and fantastic collide in these wise and exquisitely unsettling stories. From bewildering assemblies in school auditoriums to the murky waters of a Depression-era health resort, Beams's landscapes are tinged with other­worldliness, and her characters' desires stretch the limits of reality.
