Short Fiction: Her Body and Other Parties

Published October 3, 2017 -- not a lot of scholarship done because of it being so recent, but also because Machado is a woman of color, writing about women, their bodies, and sexual experiences 

Two poems before the title page, setting the tone for the content and themes of Her Body and Other Parties. 

My body is a haunted
house that I am lost in.
There are no doors but there are knives
and a hundred windows. 
-Jacqui Germain


god should have made girls lethal
when he made monsters of men.
-Elisabeth Hewer
