What People are Saying About Darcey Steinke“Steinke’s prose repeatedly hints at the divine in tangible things.” —The New Yorker “I became riveted by Steinke’s tone, a steady, lovely, hallowed, patient, things-in-themselves hum.” —New York Times Book Review“Steinke has a diabolical grasp of the willfulness of decadence, the ambiguity of sexuality, and the transmutability of identity.” —Booklist |
