"Susan Hubbard writes with icy precision and a kind of close-focus attention to detail that is too little in evidence these days. In her work, she always gets it right.... Marvelous." -- Frederick Barthelme, "Equally literate and adventurous,The Society of Sdiscloses its delectable secrets slowly. Susan Hubbard has taken a much-beloved trope and created a coming-of-age novel with real bite." -- Stewart O'Nan, "Equally literate and adventurous, The Society of S discloses its delectable secrets slowly. Susan Hubbard has taken a much-beloved trope and created a coming-of-age novel with real bite." -- Stewart O'Nan, "Susan Hubbard's stories are about the accidents of desire, and the accidents that desire provokes.... Mysterious, comic, and menacing, they combine simplicity and complexity to create an effect of great elegance and power." -- Charles Baxter, "Equally literate and adventurous, "The Society of S" discloses its delectable secrets slowly. Susan Hubbard has taken a much-beloved trope and created a coming-of-age novel with real bite." -- Stewart O'Nan, "What happens when a thirteen-year-old girl, living in the ordinary world we all know, discovers she's a vampire? For Ariella Montero, the star of this dark and imaginative novel, it's a revelation that's both illuminating and unsettling, but also one that leads ultimately to the beginnings of self-knowledge. A triumph of modern gothic storytelling, The Society of S is the most unusual coming of age story youll ever read." -- Carolyn Parkhust, author of Lost and Found and The Dogs of Babel, "What happens when a thirteen-year-old girl, living in the ordinary world we all know, discovers she's a vampire?
