"Whatever his subject matter, Killian maintains full authority--offering up a homoerotic interpretation of Flannery O'Connor's "A Good Man Is Hard to Find" and a brilliant imagined history of Hank Williams. Here, under the author's careful control and easygoing charisma, everything seems up for grabs, and almost anything seems possible."--"Time Out New York""Impossible Princess" is the third collection of gay short fiction by PEN Award-winning San Francisco-based author Kevin Killian. A member of the "new narrative" circle including Dennis Cooper and Kathy Acker, Killian is a master short story writer, crafting campy and edgy tales that explore the humor and darkness of desire. A former director of Small Press Traffic and a co-editor of "Mirage/Periodical," Killian co-wrote Jack Spicer's biography, "Poet Be Like God," and co-edited three Spicer books, including "My Vocabulary Did This To Me: Collected Poems." His latest book, "Action Kylie," is a collection of poems devoted to Kylie Minogue.
