Description
Jennifer Caloyeras is an enormously talented writer with a rare combination of great imagination and heart."" - Max Brooks, author of The Zombie Survival Guide and World War Z ""Jennifer Caloyeras's stories snap, crackle, and pop with animal energy. Every one of these stories is an unruly creature, wild at heart, fierce and funny, and heartbreaking."" - Zsuzsi Gartner, author of Better Living through Plastic Explosives and All the Anxious Girls on Earth ""When you read Unruly Creatures, the stories stare back at you like a caged gorilla. Haunting, revelatory, and utterly breathtaking, Caloyeras is an astonishing talent."" - Matthew J. Trafford, author of The Divinity Gene ""Riotous, off-kilter, tender, magical-this collection is utterly accomplished and madly engaging. Jennifer Caloyeras's writing is as wild and beautiful as the unruly creatures in her stories."" - Laura Trunkey, author of Double Dutch, a 2017 ABA Indies Introduce title
