Stephanie Burt on Otherly:

Spectacular, sympathetic, admirably impatient and long in the making, Rebecca Reynolds's third (and best) collection takes us from life-saving q***r gardening in New Jersey halfway across the universe, mixing personal odes with speculative flights. One minute she's "smoothing stones beneath the viaduct," "like sky-on-branch / over stiff catalpa pods." Another minute, and she's memorializing vernacular would-be memorials, roadside heights of American Baroque, "a doily glued to a picture frame, a God's Eye taped with plastic flowers." And in another still, she's introspective and yet almost apocalyptic, "tilted and afloat" in a year "after everyone is finally unseen." Could she be our le***an Dylan Thomas? If you could be, wouldn't you? Go now and see what she can do.

Cover Reveal for a Spring Title!

THE PILLOW MUSEUM is a collection of 56 flash fictions, micro-essays, and contemporary fables set in various simulacra of our world.

Claire Bateman’s gorgeous prose captures the imagination with closely observed details of people and places that are startlingly familiar yet unreal, where nothing can be taken for granted.
