"Let us all now append one more syllable to the list of the most acrobatic imaginations in contemporary American fiction: Saunders, Bender, Link, and Luce! This book in an incantation, and I adore it." --Claire Vaye Watkins, author of Battleborn "These stories unsettle as much as they entertain." --Jim Shepard, author of You Think That's Bad "In Three Scenarios in Which Hana Sasaki Grows a Tail, Kelly Luce manages the impossible: each story delicate and enormous, intricate, glitteringly beautiful, never less than strange, never less than profound, ten spiderwebs astonishingly spun. Readers: here is your new favorite short story writer." --Elizabeth McCracken, author of An Exact Replica of a Figment of My Imagination "Kelly Luce writes stories whose charm is a lasting effect. Her work is witty, unpredictable, and freshly written. There's a genuine imagination at work here that is a delight to spend time with." --Stuart Dybek, author of The Coast of Chicago "Perhaps the greatest magic of all is Luce's gift for exploring the pains people take to love and be loved. Luce excels at making the fantastical familiar and the familiar fantastic. Three Scenarios in Which Hana Sasaki Grows a Tail is a triumph!" --Amber Dermont, author of The Starboard Sea "Kelly Luce writes rings around most writers, and this is only her first book. Hana Sasaki is bold, strange, funny, and tender. These stories are just such a pleasure to read--so forget this blurb and get to the damn book." --Victor LaValle, author of The Devil in Silver
