Description

Eve Babitz's Black Swans is a captivating collection of nine stories that capture the essence of a bygone era. With its languid pleasures and champagne fizz, this reissue of Babitz's work celebrates the voice of a generation.

Written in the 1980s and early 1990s, these stories offer a glimpse into a changing world, marked by dreams, drink, and the pursuit of pleasure. With an introduction by Stephanie Danler, this reissue cemented Babitz's reputation as a master of the genre.

On the page, Babitz's writing is pure pleasure, a perpetual-motion machine of no-stakes elation. If you're looking for a collection of stories that will transport you to a different time and place, Black Swans is an excellent choice.
