Kubasta, C.: - C. Kubasta was born in a small town, a place where the winter light through bare branches always looks a little spooky. Her previous novels This Business of the Flesh (Apprentice House), and Girling (Brain Mill) explore small-town life through the interrelationships of complex and flawed protagonists. Her poetry is widely available in a variety of journals, and the poetry collections Of Covenants (Whitepoint Press), and All Beautiful & Useless (BlazeVox). She lives, writes, and teaches in Wisconsin, where she continues to be fascinated by the subtleties of language, meaning, and the stories we choose to tell, as well as those we don't.
