From the Publisher:
Praise for Flying Leap:
About the Author:
"I don't know what planet Budnitz comes from, but I'm happy to have her. Flying Leap is a tremendous debut--funny, dark, weird, adventurous, slanted and enchanted." --Newsweek
"Budnitz reveals a bionic ear for clever dialogue and a picturesque writing style with a fearless tone that rarely wavers, no matter how quirky the conceit." --J.D. Biersdorfer, The New York Times Book Review
"Amazingly original...These unsettling short stories leave you wanting more." --Seventeen
"Entertaining, engaging." --Time Out New York
"Budnitz's humorous and original story ideas and the bold strokes with which she delineates them are the indispensable allies of her lyric intelligence.... An intriguing and mature debut." --Rachel Cusk, The Village Voice
"Stunningly visual...[Budnitz] is terrifically talented. It will be interesting to see how far her own flying leaps take her." --Boston Globe
Judy Budnitz grew up in Atlanta and attended Harvard University. She was a fellow at the Provincetown Fine Arts Work Center, and received her MFA from New York University. Her stories have appeared in Story, The Paris Review, Glimmer Train, and the anthology 25 and Under. She lives in New York City.
