Lydia Mathis
Set in the American South, Lydia Mathis’s debut collection has a voice that vibrates on the page and her sharply drawn, authentic characters shine a light on what we’re willing to do to ourselves and to others in service of our desires. The madness in the ordinary rules here: an overworked college safety officer is confronted by a bloody figure who walks into her office; a sex worker runs into a client en route to a parent-teacher conference; a teacher is plagued by a ghost determined to tidy her apartment.
In unflinching prose, Mathis takes a frank and determined look at girls and women subjected to imbalances of power. These stories refuse to look away from the most honest, raw moments of womanhood. Desperate Bodies is a thrilling ride that introduces Lydia Mathis as a major new writer.
