Is It Sexual Harassment YetUniversity of Alabama Press, 1998 - 223 pages In this new collection of short fictions, Cris Mazza shows herself to be a true inheritor of that "American grotesque" brought into our cultural consciousness by Sherwood Anderson. Her first collection, Animal Acts, was widely reviewed and critically acclaimed. Is It Sexual Harassment Yet? confirms her talent to investigating the strangely erotic and oddly exotic private lives of middling America. |
