    Author Carmen Maria Machado
    “Book Descriptions: "‘I have heard all of the stories about girls like me, and I am unafraid to make more of them.’

    If you read this story out loud, please use the following voices:
    Me: as a child, high-pitched, forgettable; as a woman, the same.
    The boy who will grow into a man, and be my spouse: robust with his own good fortune.
    My father: Like your father, or the man you wish was your father.
    My son: as a small child, gentle, rounded with the faintest of lisps; as a man, like my husband.
    All other women: interchangeable with my own.

    Carmen Maria Machado is the celebrated author of the memoir In the Dream House and the vibrant story collection Her Body and Other Parties. She has been a finalist for the National Book Award and the winner of the Bard Fiction Prize, the Lambda Literary Award for Lesbian Fiction, the Brooklyn Public Library Literature Prize, a Shirley Jackson Award and the National Book Critics Circle’s John Leonard Prize.
