Hungry Daughters of Starving Mothers and Other Stories
From the award-winning author of "Hungry Daughters of Starving Mothers" and "You'll Surely Drown Here If You Stay" ― the first ever story collection from the Nebula, World Fantasy, and Locus Award-winning Alyssa Wong.
The collection includes 6 award-nominated/winning short pieces, two flash fictions published only digitally to date, and five entirely new short stories.
In the vein of Carmen Maria Machado and Kelly Link - Alyssa Wong's writing is both intensely familiar and astonishingly singular. With stories seemingly ripped from the headlines ("Live Stream") or fashioned from uncanny dream-worlds ("Salt Cycles"), Wong's voice will compel and delight all who dip into this stunning collection.
