DiMarco explores the human condition in intimate and harrowing turns that leave the reader breathless and unable to look away." -Bree Indigo, Unnerving 3After a two decade sabbatical spent writing for film and television, bestselling novelist and award-winning poet Jennifer DiMarco returns to prose with Hannah at Night, a collection of no-holds-barred, untamed stories. Deeply revealing, lush with sensory details and complicated characters inhabiting fantastical worlds, DiMarco's four decades as a radical storyteller across multiple mediums elevates her work whether she's exploring gender, sexuality, dimensional travel, racism, virtual reality, cloning, class, or redemption. Hannah at Night collects all twelve stories written by DiMarco for the first generation of the Emerge project plus a bonus story and an extensive interview with the author. Emerge collected nine diverse storytellers-a spectrum of style, ideology, politics, race, sexuality, and religion. For one year, authors were sent a monthly writing prompt, creating flashpoints to craft their best work. Explore Emerge Winter, Emerge Spring, Emerge Summer, Emerge Autumn, and The Emerge Guidebook to discover their original stories.
