Why read it?
1 author picked Earth Angel as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This collection of inventive, hilarious, and weirdly heartbreaking stories is both totally accessible and unlike anything I’ve ever read.

A brilliant, bellwether book by an author that we’ll be hearing from a lot more in the coming years.
