Description

Presenting a brand new superstar of her era, a power debut story series about small African-American and mixed-race teenagers, ladies, and men desperate for a location within their neighborhoods and households. When Danielle Evansis short-story "Virgins" was printed in The Paris Review in late 2007, it announced the introduction of a strong new style. Created when she was just twenty-three, Evansis tale of two dark, blue-collar fifteen-year-old women' flirtation with maturity for just one evening was surprising in its pitch-perfect study of race, class, and the changing landscape of adolescence. Today this introduction series delivers on the promise of the early tale.
