Skin of the Sun: New Writing (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781541371705)

Award-winning author Debra Di Blasi gathers her most radical, challenging, and evocative writing into one delicious book. Not for the faint of heart, these stories stretch from the Phil Spector murder trial to murders in an African township, from a hedge fund manager's sexually explicit death throes to a suicidal teen's Facebook page, from the fragility of a marriage to the hidden violence of suburbia, and beyond. A sumptuous, compelling and intelligent collision of text and image.

Praise for Debra Di Blasi's Writing

New York Times Book Review: "In clear, resonant prose, laced with bittersweet humor, Di Blasi imparts her understanding of love's multiple ironies."

Publishers Weekly: "Both Di Blasi's style and her objective distance and comprehension of her chosen subject mark her as a very psychologically driven, very talented writer."

Kansas City Star: "Debra Di Blasi writes in a gray zone where literature, art and conceptual performance meet. Her prose reads like poetry or comes with scrapbook visuals. Her social comment channels Duchamp and his surreal cousins."
