Not a Chance by Jessica Treat
Ranging in location from St. Germain and Mexico City to a coldly bucolic New England, these individually wrapped dreams record the struggle of contemporary consciousness for placement and connection. ""Treat's"" narrators - American, female, mostly single - are cultural refugees given to obsession and passionate longing. In the complex title story, a woman attempts to imagine her friend's love affair, succeeding with such vividness that woman and friend begin to merge. In ""Radio Disturbance"" a character gradually becomes so attached to her therapist's voice that she insinuates herself into the woman's home. These are haunting, intricately textured fictions that will lift you high above familiar ground.| SKU | Unavailable |
