Cecilia

[A] thrillingly disorienting novella of queer love and intimate obsession... In this author’s highly original voice, language writhes into new, ultra-sensual imaginings and leads us into an uncanny world where the familiar is made strange * Guardian * Chang continues to captivate with her lyrical prose and rich storytelling... Cecilia's intricate narrative structure and magical realism creates a hauntingly beautiful tapestry of emotions & experiences. Chang is an inventive voice that deserves to be heard * Glamour * Rowdy and razor-sharp, luminescent and enchanting, K-Ming Chang is an utter master of the strange intimacies of the body -- Alexandra Kleeman If you're not reading K-MIng Chang, then what are you reading?... A surreal cascade of girlhood memories about desire, queerness, and obsession. Cecilia is at once erotic and repulsive, carnal and tasty. In a word: delicious * Literary Hub * Erotic and strange, captivating and twisted: This one’s for the freaks (complimentary) * Bustle * Chang explores the ways in which the body can elicit both desire and disgust, and offers an original look at the volatility of a teen friendship. It’s another high-water mark from a prolific and provocative author * Publishers Weekly * The work of reading this book leaves the reader with the same feeling one has after eating a particularly indulgent meal—satiation, with the knowledge of more hunger to come * Kirkus Reviews *
