Beskrivelse af Better Bones
Better Bones is a collection of lyrical hybrid stories that focuses on the way the body holds memories, desires, and self-destructive tendencies. The pieces combine real-life landscapes, from Philadelphia to Los Angeles to Long Island, as well as childlike mythical places, as the narrator moves backward and forwards, through childhood to adulthood, in order to make sense of their surroundings and decisions.
"Better Bones wallows in the after. It explores longing and nostalgia and finds in them beauty broken down. Jane-Rebecca Cannarella is the Leonard Cohen of burnt tongues and broken sidewalks-of digging through desire and eating with dirty fingers. Heartfelt and sensual, Better Bones unravels and coils around you one ruined piece at a time."
-Daniel DiFranco, author of Panic Years
"Say Comyns and Carrington plotted a miraculous high five-Better Bones would break through their palms. An ouch to peel and tweeze, even tease. To deny the opportunity of familiarizing yourself with Canarella is to suffer an extraterrestrial score of deprivation. This is the other side of real life. It has everything: hardball comedy, sweets, and blood."
-Barracuda Guarisco, author of Narwhal/Red Dolphin & Uncomfortable Music
