Praise for Paula Bomer ""Bomer offers her characters no outs—only the creeping sense that they're doomed to swing forever between futile attempts at self-determination."" —The New York Times Book Review “Phenomenal.” —The Atlantic “Dark, sharp, and hilarious.” —New York Magazine ""Haunting, defiant."" —Milwaukee Journal Sentinel ""Bomer’s book will be talked about because she writes with such honesty about sex, but it is in matters of the soul she is most honest. These are women laid bare. Bomer dares us to look."" —The Rumpus “I inhaled this novel. Astute. Empathetic. Unsparing. Brilliant. Bomer pushes the emotional envelope—and then shoves harder.” —Thelma Adams, author of Bittersweet Brooklyn
