Three women. An ancient city. Dangerous obsessions. Strays
in Pompeii from Joi Brozek, the author of Sleeveless.
"Joi Brozek is one of those rare writers who truly understands
not only craft but also the emotional depth that is such an integral
part of it. Her writing is fierce, challenging, often cynical and
darkly humorous, but consistently intelligent and honest. With a
flair for subtlety few young writers possess, her work falls
somewhere between the poetic and haunting style of Kathe Koja,
and the gritty, razor-sharp prose of Darcey Steinke--with a dash
of Patricia Highsmith thrown in for good measure. A rising star
to keep an eye on."
--Greg F. Gifune, author of Heretics, Drago Descending, Down to Sleep,
and editor of Thievin' Kitty Publications
