{"product_id":"o-fallen-angel","title":"O Fallen Angel","description":"“Delirious, uncanny, the tragedy is ecstatic, each sentence pushes you to the next, each chapter to the following. This is the page-turner of experimental work.” —The Paris Review\n\"A brilliant, hilarious debut.” —Chris Kraus, author of I Love Dick\nThe haunting debut novel that put Kate Zambreno on the map, O Fallen Angel, is a provocative, voice-driven story of a family in crisis—and, more broadly, the crisis of the American family—now repackaged and with a new introduction by Lidia Yuknavitch.\nInspired by Francis Bacon's Three Studies for Figures at the Base of a Crucifixion, Kate Zambreno's brilliant novel is a triptych of modern-day America set in a banal Midwestern landscape, told from three distinct, unforgettable points of view.\nThere is \"Mommy,\" a portrait of housewife psychosis, fenced in by her own small mind. There is \"Maggie,\" Mommy's unfortunate daughter whom she infects with fairytales. Then there is the mysterious martyr-figure Malachi, a Cassandra in army fatigues, the Septimus Smith to Mommy's Mrs. Dalloway, who stands at the foot of the highway holding signs of fervent prophecy, gaping at the bottomless abyss of the human condition, while SUVs scream past.\nDeeply poignant, sometimes hilarious, and other times horrifying, O Fallen Angel is satire at its best.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0062572687\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.0062572687.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Zambreno, Kate\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: This copy has clearly been enjoyed—expect noticeable shelf wear and some minor creases to the cover.
