Dirty Suburbia (2024)
Sara Hosey
"Absolutely stunning! Sara Hosey's Dirty Suburbia contains some of the most poignant, insightful, and entertaining stories I have read in ages. I couldn't put this book down. Perceptive, empathetic, and always on point, Hosey's characters will stay with you. From the two pre-teen kidnappers trying to figure out how to return their 'prey,' to a young woman's encounter with a Thoreau-reenactor, to a stunning story about navigating misogyny at Christmas dinner, and a heartbreaking tale of living with the aftermath of sexual assault, I was awestruck by the range of tales and will be thinking about the world of Dirty Suburbia for a long time. These stories are absolute gems. Not to be missed."
