Poetry. "Just enough knife, just enough feather--Rebecca Hazelton's Bad Star cuts and caresses with masochistic precision in this brilliant dissection of modern love. I would say to potential readers: take a deep breath and see how far you can go."--Allison Benis White
"Bad Star is a gripping, lyric noir that chronicles the travails of a clear-eyed femme fatale we root for despite, or because of, her love of 'small violences/ which swoon her silent/ and unafraid." Hazelton recasts a tale of star-crossed lovers with a fierce intelligence, a profound exploration of eroticism, and a music so exquisite it carries us through from violence to radiance: 'what joy, / to feel opened up/ to wonder...to have the real/ fear at last.'"-- Katy Didden
