“This is beautiful—the best thing I’ve read all year.” - Early praise for Hoodbitch
"The cold window soothes my forehead and the steamy bus, the steady vibration of the engine beneath my feet slows everything down: my adrenaline, the sliding-by shop door images, people weighted in winter coats, lights and late-afternoon dark. There’s a luxury in the ride, in the suspended warmth, in the seat, and I reach my hand between my feet and fondle the mittens I took from L.S. Ayers Department Store. There are three sets for each of my younger sisters, each soft and new, richly colored. The fabric on my fingers is luscious."
