'A brilliant new voice in American fiction has arrived. Bright, sharp, startling, utterly distinctive' David MeansSet around Lookout Mountain on the border of Georgia and Tennessee, Jamie Quatro's hypnotically revealing debut stories range from the traditional to the fabulist as they expose lives torn between spirituality and sexuality in the New American South. These fifteen linked tales confront readers with dark theological complexities, fractured marriages, and mercurial temptations.Sharp-edged and fearless, mixing white-hot yearning with daring humour, I Want To Show You More unleashes Quatro's exhilarating talent for exposing the quiet terrors of modern life with stunning and subversive energy.'Reminiscent of the dark-meets-light style of Lydia Davis or Alice Munro - Quatro is so good . . . the title of this debut collection isn't just a tease.'
