The short stories that make up Ghost Pains, Jessi Jezewska Stevens' first collection, are engagingly enigmatic, the deeper significance of the often awkward encounters they describe seeming to be just beyond the reach of the reader and the characters themselves. Buzz review here.
In this interview with Regan Mies for the Chicago Review Of Books, Stevens talks about the stories' relation to her two novels and to her non-fiction writing, her use of the surreal/absurd and her preoccupation with the themes of debt and waste.
