Reviews
"Inventive, irreverent, and riveting--these stories come at you off the page. Didn't I know this paper girl? Didn't I meet that suburban sorceress, this crabby poet, that sweet delinquent, this mother-of-the-felon? Elizabeth Stuckey-French's characters charge straight out of Middle America, one part wacky and two parts doomed. That they are also resilient and funny makes this extraordinary collection a delight to read." --Janet Burroway, author of Cutting Stone and Writing Fiction: A Guide to Narrative Craft "Elizabeth Stuckey-French's characters may live in small towns but their lives are anything but small as they seek to find their way out of intricate situations, give voice to surprising emotions. The First Paper Girl in Red Oak, Iowa is a rich, absorbing collection, the first of many, I hope, by this gifted writer." --Margot Livesey, author of The Missing World and Criminals, "Inventive, irreverent, and riveting--these stories come at you off the page.

Synopsis
Welcome to the curious world of Elizabeth Stuckey-French. Her exuberant collection is peopled with characters who walk a thin line between reality and delusion, trying to break out of their molds and live a little. With stylish, wry writing, Stuckey-French creates intelligent, poignant, funny fiction. Her characters--mostly Midwesterners trying to make sense of a changing world--are bizarre but strangely lovable. They may lie to make their situations better, but the stories have a resounding emotional truth. In "Junior," we meet a dog psychic who enlists her troubled niece in a moneymaking scheme. In "Electric Wizard," grieving parents beg a teacher to invent poetry and pretend their dead son wrote it. And in the title story, the mother of two young children drives east on a disordered impulse through a blizzard and picks up a gas station attendant along the way. Several of these stories have appeared inThe Atlantic Monthlyand literary reviews, where her work has received recognition and praise. In Stuckey-French's striking fictional world, powerful emotional forces roil the outwardly placid surfaces of her characters' lives--our notions of "normal" are permanently altered, and yet these stories have a generosity of spirit that cannot fail to strike a chord with all of us.
