Verge: Stories by Lidia Yuknavitch

3.0

Lidia Yuknavitch is one of my favorite authors--I will read anything she writes. Her latest is a collection of short stories that has the familiar gut-wrenching aftershocks we've come to expect from her. Characters living on the fringes of society, the fringes of trauma, the fringes of recovery...Yuknavitch pulls us into their worlds and shows us the light and the dark that exist in all of them, and in all of us. A worthwhile read, especially for anyone who has ever felt like an outcast. I felt a deeper connection, personally, to her nonfiction (The Chronology of Water), but would certainly recommend this collection for any Yuknavitch fan.
