Now she does it again by giving us a powerful, new perspective on the next phase of women's lives. Full of the sly humor, deep wisdom, and poignancy we know from her poetry, fiction, and essays, Fear of Dying (St. Martin's) is a story for everyone who has ever been shaken and changed by love.

Chuck doesn't know how he ended up as the creepy 43-year-old guy with the drugs, or the guy who's too old to be at the party doing everyone else's drugs. In the end, though, every addict has that one special vice that can tip them from relatively functional to completely unhinged. For Chuck, it's a new drug that doesn't even have a name yet. But when chunks of time begin to disappear and rearrange themselves, he wonders if this is just another life-ruining drug, or if it's something out of a Philip K. Dick universe. Black Hole (Soft Skull) is the new novel from poet and comedian Bucky Sinister.

While she is recovering from the hit-and-run, Nate, an old flame, reappears, and the two must traverse their rocky past as they figure out how to use Eva's power to keep her friends — and themselves — alive.
