Her Body and Other Parties
Carmen Maria MachadoFinalist for the National Book Award for Fiction
Finalist for the 2017 Kirkus Prize For Fiction
A highly anticipated debut by one of the most ferociously gifted young writers working today (Michelle Huneven). “[These stories] vibrate with originality, queerness, sensuality & the strange” (Roxane Gay).
“In these formally brilliant & emotionally charged tales, Machado gives literal shape to women’s memories & hunger & desire. I couldn’t put it down.” - Karen Russell
In Her Body & Other Parties, Carmen Maria Machado blithely demolishes the arbitrary borders between psychological realism & science fiction, comedy & horror, fantasy & fabulism. While her work has earned her comparisons to Karen Russell & Kelly Link, she has a voice that is all her own. In this electric & provocative debut, Machado bends genre to shape startling narratives that map the realities of women’s lives & the violence visited upon their bodies.
"Her Body & Other Parties — just announced as a finalist for the National Book Award — is an abrupt, original, & wild collection of stories, full of outlandish myths that somehow catch at familiar, unspoken truths about being women in the world that more straightforward or realist writing wouldn't." — Annalisa Quinn, NPR
“A love letter to an obstinate genre that won’t be gentrified. It’s a wild thing, this book, covered in sequins & scales.” - Parul Sehgal, The New York Times
Earthy & otherworldly, antic & sexy, queer & caustic, comic & deadly serious, Her Body and Other Parties swings from horrific violence to the most exquisite sentiment. In their explosive originality, these stories enlarge the possibilities of contemporary fiction.
