In ten swiftly moving stories Ms. Luongo gives us a strong female protagonist who is up to her frizzy-haired head with the tough and often grotesque complexities of love. And yet through it all our heroine never loses her sense of humor. It is her most endearing trait. I would treat Lucy to sautéed foie gras at Le Bec Fin just for the side-splitting pleasure of hearing her tell me why I’m not going home with her at the end of the evening. — Jason Schossler, Writer, Poet, and Creative Writing Professor, Ursinus College
Julie Luongo’s The Hard Way
