Bad Marie, Paperback

"Reading Marcy Dermansky's Bad Marie is like spending a rainy afternoon in a smaller, older movie theater watching a charming French movie with a woman (or a man) you've just met on the street and already like far too much. It's sinful in all the right ways, delicate, seditious, and deliciously evil." -- Frederick Barthelme

"Dermansky excels at depicting extreme emotional states and how we rationalize them." --Village Voice

From the critically-acclaimed author of Twins, Marcy Dermansky, comes a highly original novel of Manhattan, Paris, and Mexico; of love and motherhood; and of life on the lam. Fans of Heather O'Neill (Lullabies for Little Criminals) and A.M. Homes (Music for Torching) will revel in the wicked delights of Bad Marie.
