In Liquid, A Love Story (Algonquin & Doubleday) a queer adjunct professor in LA tries to marry rich. When a family emergency pulls her to Tehran, this satirical take on the politics of love gets serious. Called “the dawning of a literary force” by Paul Beatty and "a transgressive tour de force of cultural criticism hidden inside a careening, and deftly comic, logic proof of love” by Heidi Julavits, Liquid is at once heartfelt and caustic — an uncompromising debut by an author Justin Torres describes as “the most exciting new writer I've read in ages.”
