„Babitz’s talent for the brilliant line, honed to a point, never interferes with her feel for languid pleasures.“ – The New York Times Book ReviewA 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 perpetual-motion machine of no-stakes elation and champagne fizz.“ – The New Yorker"[A] true original.„ – The Boston Globe"She’s a natural.

brief." – Los Angeles Review of Books
