I Go To Some Hollow

the long version

Fiction. In her debut collection of fifteen short stories, Amina Cain makes ordinary worlds strange and spare and beautiful. A woman carves invisible images onto ice, a pair of black wings appears in front of a house, and a restless teacher sits in a gallery of miniature rooms. As Miranda Mellis describes, "The revelatory pleasure and hope [in these stories] emanate from an artistry driven by ethical desire." "I highly recommend reading <em>I Go To Some Hollow</em>," says Bhanu Kapil, "because of what it teaches you about love, and the relationship between love and writing." <em>I Go To Some Hollow</em> is published as part of the <em>TrenchArt: Tracer Series</em>, with an Introduction by Bhanu Kapil and collaborative visual art by Ken Erhlich and Susan Simpson.
