Katie Chase’s electrifying collection, Man and Wife, is out May 10. Publishers Weekly calls it “a consistently provocative debut collection.” Marie Claire says it’s “funny, subversive, and antagonizing.” Peter Ho Davies remarks, “Katie Chase’s narrators sound like the girl-next-door … if you lived next door to a parallel universe.”

We’ll be celebrating this one all summer, with a launch in Portland (May 12), a party here in Austin (June 9), and a reading in LA (at Book Soup on June 19). Get a jump on it all by preordering the book here.

And stay tuned for fall book festival dates.
