--Stephanie Elizondo Griest, author of Around the Bloc: My Life in Moscow, Beijing, and Havana
When I first heard Lori Horvitz read some of her memoir essays, I laughed so hard my jeans burst open at the waist. The Girls of Usually may be like nothing you've ever read. But as in all the very finest writing, you'll see yourself--and maybe find yourself.
--Lynda Schor, author of Sexual Harassment Rules and The Body Parts Shop
Horvitz writes with a fine balance of wit and poignancy, deftly delivering her stories in a way that feels both personal and universal. The Girls of Usually is a read that stays with you--unsettling, complicated, and wholly rewarding.
--Artis Henderson, author of Unremarried Widow

With deft sleights of hand and stunning illumination, Lori Horvitz, in her mesmerizing book The Girls of Usually, alchemizes the transformation of a shy, bookish girl into an extraordinary woman. Filled with fierce emotional and psychological insight, these personal essays create spirit photographs of complex family dynamics, an absent/lost mother, the rising consciousness of queer and Jewish identities, and the haunting and formative palimpsests of past relationships. Traversing New York, North Carolina, Israel, China, Spain, and Manhattan's East Village during the height of the AIDS epidemic and ACT UP, The Girls of Usually charts both the beauty and pain of living and loving openly, of seeing through the illusions of conventionality into the harder-earned art of the remarkable. These smart, witty, and heartbreaking essays are pure magic and Lori Horvitz is truly a magician of the form.
--Lee Ann Roripaugh, author of Dandarians
