K-Ming Chang is a Kundiman fellow, a National Book Foundation 5 Under 35 honoree and an O. Henry Prize winner. She is the author of the novel Bestiary, which was longlisted for the Center for Fiction First Novel Prize, and Gods of Want, which won the Lambda Literary Award.
Alert to the ways reality can buckle and contort, Chang conjures
fiction that is almost fairytale-like, mythical, unsettling - yet
at the same time blisteringly alive and unapologetically queer
*Guardian*
These stories glitter and pulse
*DANTIEL W. MONIZ, author of Milk Blood Heat*
A voracious, probing collection, proof of how exhilarating the
short story can be... Each one is possessed of a powerful hunger, a
drive to metabolize the recognizable features of a familiar world
and transform them into something wilder, and achingly alive
*New York Times Book Review*
Constantly illuminating and thoroughly astounding... a stunning and
moving work by one of our most brilliant authors.
*BRYAN WASHINGTON, author of Lot and Memorial*
These stories by the Taiwanese American author of the gutsy 2020
debut novel Bestiary are obsessed with the vagaries of emigration
and adolescence. Populated by ghosts and spirits, they dissolve the
rigidities of American life into a slipstream of folkloric myth and
transform the familiar world into something wilder.
*New York Times*
To read K-Ming Chang is to see the world in fresh, surreal
technicolor... Both wild and lyrical, visionary and touching. Read
her!
*SHARLENE TEO, author of Ponti*
Ferociously talented
*JUSTIN TORRES, author of We the Animals*
A whole body experience.
*THEM*
No one writes like K-Ming Chang. Wise, energetic, funny, and wild,
Gods of Want displays a boundless imagination anchored by the
weight of ancestors and history. These stories sing, a true force
to behold.
*KALI FAJARDO-ANSTINE, author of Sabrina and Corina*
In the genre of feminine madness, these stories are to be
worshipped. They are fearless, hysterical, violent yet full of
grace. Each sentence escalates toward devastating, poetic insight
about our bodies, about cultural demands both treasured and feared,
and about what makes being alive a terror and a joy.
*VENITA BLACKBURN, author of How to Wrestle a Girl*
