Product Description
by Garielle Lutz (Author)
DIVORCER is a collection of seven harrowing and hyperprecise short stories about ruinous relationships and their aftershocks.
"Lutz is a master prose stylist. . . . Lutz succeeds where so many other language-obsessed writers fail, because his narratives rise beyond the lexical tricks of which they're composed. Give yourself over to the contorted logic of this book and you come away lugubrious yet exuberant, having lived for a time in a reality at once shattered and inspired. . . . [H]is work gathers a remarkable strength, allowing him to battle convention and win." - Bookforum
". . . Lutz displays an innate understanding of the grim compromises of modern life but heightens and glorifies these with his dizzying language. He refuses to let the dreary world force him to write a dreary sentence."
- Paris Review
"Gary Lutz is one of my very favorite prose stylists, and his new story collection Divorcer . . . might be his best ever." - Dennis Cooper
