Ecstatic Sex by Ma Ananda Sarita
Eldridge is unrelenting. Each story is painful, exhausting and provocative . . . driven by thoughts expertly rendered into dialogue . . . [Her obsessions] are bloody, naked, and screaming. It's hard not to look.--San Francisco ChronicleIn the seven stories and one novella collected in Unkempt, Courtney Eldridge gives life to characters of astounding originality. Probing the darker corners of the human psyche, she shows--with a sly and unexpected sense of humor--the neurotic mind at work, the skewed perspective of an alcoholic parent, the nature of sexual conquest, and the hazards of working in retail. Fresh, funny, and candid, Eldridge's writing delivers a new and marvelous vision of life.
Courtney Eldridge is one of my favorite living short story writers. When I read her, I feel better about literature and better about the world.--Rick Moody, author of Demonology and The Ice Storm
