About Stacey Levine
Stacey Levine is an American novelist, short story author, and journalist. She has been called "one of the most interesting writers working in America today," "a gifted performance artist of literary fiction, part French existentialist and part comic bomb-thrower," and her writing has been described as "unlike anything else. .. vivid and preternaturally alert to the strangeness of the human condition." Reviewing her 2011 story collection The Girl with Brown Fur, Donna Seaman summed up Levine's writing thus:Stacey Levine ignores lyricism as an evolutionary dead end. Life is fractious and dire, her prose style says; let fiction serve as razor and torch. It's not that Levine isn't funny or that she doesn't forge phrases and sentences of throat-clutching beauty. It's just that her effort to dissect humankind's propensity for neuroses, fallacies, and other inanities requires measured drollery and surgical concision.
