Description
Katrina Denza writes women in conflict: attempting to woo a man via a burner phone, discovering the best friendships are those grounded in reality, subscribing to a hologram service to speak to a deceased husband, reclaiming power only to realize power is an illusion, discovering there is no safe haven, confronting the frustrations of being an artist, and reckoning with mistakes made as a mother. Wrestling with connections and disconnections, highs and lows, and the vagaries of modernity, Burner and Other Stories shows us how we live today.
