Shit Cassandra Saw Av Gwen E. Kirby

<b><b>“Kirby has mastered the art of short fiction…A stunning collection from a writer whose talent and creativity seem boundless.”<br>—NPR</b><br><br>“Kirby takes joy in subverting the reader’s expectations at every turn. Her characters might be naïve, even reckless, but they aren’t about to be victims: They’re strong, and brave, and nearly always capable of rescuing themselves.”<br><b>—<i>New York Times Book Review</i></b><br><br>Margaret Atwood meets Buffy in these funny, warm, and furious stories of women at their breaking points, from Hellenic times to today.</b><br><br>Cassandra may have seen the future, but it doesn''t mean she''s resigned to telling the Trojans everything she knows. In this ebullient collection, virgins escape from being sacrificed, witches refuse to be burned, whores aren''t ashamed, and every woman gets a chance to be a radioactive cockroach warrior who snaps back at catcallers.
