Black Swans — Eve Babitz

"Babitz's talent for the brilliant line, honed to a point, never interferes with her feel for languid pleasures." -- The New York Times Book Review

A new reissue of Babitz's collection of nine stories that look back on the 1980s and early 1990s -- decades of dreams, drink, and glimpses of a changing world. Black Swans further celebrates the phenomenon of Eve Babitz, cementing her reputation as the voice of a generation.

With an introduction by Stephanie Danler, bestselling author of Sweetbitter.

"On the page, Babitz is pure pleasure -- a perpetualâ€"motion machine of noâ€"stakes elation and champagne fizz." -- The New Yorker
