    • In her debut collection, Julia Slavin conjures a world that is both familiar and limitless, where amidst our ordinary lives the banal and the unimaginable brush up against one another with startling grace and ease.

    • Žena v domácnosti spolkne do půl pasu obnaženého teenagera, který jí stříhá trávník. Obchodník jdoucí letištní chodbou na autobus domů riskuje všech no, aby zachránil osmilibrového humra od jisté smrti a konzumace. Zamilované ženě narostou zuby po celém těle a jednou večer se vrátí domů a kůže jí svítí zlatými plombami. Maisie Haselkornová z rodu Haselkornových z Eastportu si uřízne nohu - v jednom soukromém nóbl klubu. A něco tak neškodného jako pudink rozlitý na podlaze může být důvodem k rozvodu.
