The Marco Chronicles

Description

Praise for eightball:
​“Geoghegan’s eloquently told stories examine themes of loneliness, sex, addiction, and grief through the lens of unfamiliar cultures and languages. The thread that holds it all together is Geoghegan’s cool, articulate demeanor and masterful writing.” —Kirkus Reviews   "Geoghegan’s stories take us around the world … and the quiet power of her voice reaches both heart and bone.” —Francesca Marciano, author of The Other Language, Rules of The Wild, and The End of Manners   “If Lucia Berlin is early Patti Smith, then Elizabeth Geoghegan is Blondie and Joan Jett and Florence and the Machine in one big literary sandwich.” —Susan Bradley Smith, author of The Postcult Heart, The Screaming Middle, and Beds for All Who Come   “Emotionally raw, sincere, and relentlessly adventurous. Eightball brims with a rare sense of desire, loss and, always, a hunger for more.” —Chiara Barzini, author of Things that Happened Before the Earthquake
