Eye Wuz Here: Stories by Women Writers Under 30

by Shannon Cooley (Editor)

In a variety of prose styles, from the traditional to the fiercely original, the women in this collection write about sex, desire and power. About loving your friends and getting back at your enemies. About making your own decisions and living with them. About being afraid, being cool and being alone. Together, they are creating a literature that speaks in their language, insists on their variety and acknowledges the reality of their daily lives. All the writers in tiffs collection were thirty or younger at the time their stories were submitted. From acclaimed young writers like Karen Connelly (1993 Governor General's Award for Non-Fiction) and Hiromi Goto (1995 Commonwealth Best First Novel Prize) to women being published here for the first time, eye wuz here represents many new and vital voices.
