Congratulations to the readers who won Cybil Raven: Miracle at St. Rita yesterday!
Here is today’s Giveaway!
Author Deborah Battermanis gifting 2 Kindle Copies and 2 autographed printed copies of her book SHOES HAIR NAILS
SHOES HAIR NAILS, short stories
A mother as Minnie Mouse, a haircut as barometer of change; the origin of red Chinese slippers, a friend who announces “Every man is a shoe fetishist” — image functions as symbol in SHOES HAIR NAILS, a dazzling collection of beautifully balanced, psychologically complex stories. Sensuous, full of heart and humor, these stories unmask the secrets never shared between mother and daughter, husband and wife. In settings as diverse as the rich palette of characters — 1980s New York City, 1950s Brooklyn, Las Vegas, an exurban town post-9/11 — Deborah Batterman weaves narratives around the everyday symbols in our world and their resonance in our lives.
What others are saying about SHOES HAIR NAILS:
These are brilliant, timeless, stories, little gems that address the universals, love and birth and loss and death, and in sly and unexpected ways remind us of our vulnerabilities, our foibles, our deep humanity, and our unaccountable against-all-odds will to survive. This is a collection to cherish, and to be savored more than once.
– Kiana Davenport, Author of THE SPY LOVER
This book of short stories is truth and revelation the likes of which I had to marvel at and probably will forever. How did I live so long and not be able to articulate some of the vital, primal things in my feminine heart regarding male sexuality, a woman’s reasons for sex, family relationships that don’t fulfill love, and the like? . . . Like a book written with the wisdom of a “yankee” Flannery O’Connor, Batterman’s stories are filled with satire, and laugh aloud humor; and, the profound insights she offers up in the quotable saltings of her work are new and stunning. — Deborah Riggs Previte, A Bookish Libraria
