Requests:  0 Summary:  "Award-winning author and powerhouse talent Roxane Gay burst onto the scene with An Untamed State and the New York Times bestselling essay collection Bad Feminist (Harper Perennial). Gay returns with Difficult Women, a collection of stories of rare force and beauty, of hardscrabble lives, passionate loves, and quirky and vexed human connection. The women in these stories live lives of privilege and of poverty, are in marriages both loving and haunted by past crimes or emotional blackmail. A pair of sisters, grown now, have been inseparable ever since they were abducted together as children, and must negotiate the elder sister's marriage. A woman married to a twin pretends not to realize when her husband and his brother impersonate each other. A stripper putting herself through college fends off the advances of an overzealous customer. A black engineer moves to Upper Michigan for a job and faces the malign curiosity of her colleagues and the difficulty of leaving her past behind. From a girls' fight club to a wealthy subdivision in Florida where neighbors conform, compete, and spy on each other, Gay delivers a wry, beautiful, haunting vision of modern America reminiscent of Merritt Tierce, Jamie Quatro, and Miranda July"--   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Aina Haina Public Library Adult Fiction Gay Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hanapepe Public Library Adult Fiction Gay Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Adult Fiction Gay Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Fiction Gay Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kalihi-Palama Public Library Adult Fiction Gay Checked In Add Copy to MyList Manoa Public Library Adult Fiction Gay Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Fiction Gay Checked In Add Copy to MyList Pahoa P/S Library Adult Fiction Gay Checked In Add Copy to MyList Nanakuli Public Library Adult Fiction Gay Checked In Add Copy to MyList Wailuku Public Library Adult Fiction Gay Checked In Add Copy to MyList
