Marian Crotty is the author of
What Counts as Love, which was long-listed for the PEN/Robert W. Bingham Prize and won the Janet Heidinger Kafka Prize. Her short stories have appeared in venues such as the
Kenyon Review, the Southern Review, the Sun, and
Best American Short Stories 2020. Her essays, two of which have been noted as distinguished essays by the Best American series, have appeared in journals such as the
New England Review, the Gettysburg Review, and
Guernica.
“Crotty’s impressive debut collection is somehow both varied and cohesive. These 10 sublime stories are reminiscent of Bobbie Ann Mason and Ann Beattie, thoroughly surprising and memorable.”—Publishers Weekly
