Shit Cassandra Saw: Stories

"Gwen E. Kirby doesn’t shy away from the weird in her debut short story collection. The author has a gift for writing about characters in sometimes extraordinary circumstances with a mostly straight face, revealing truths that cast a bright light on women trying to make their way in an endlessly hostile society. She’s willing to take risks, but knows when to tap the brakes, when to step back and let her carefully drawn characters speak for themselves. This is a stunning collection from a writer whose talent and creativity seem boundless."
