Sharp-edged and fearless, combining white-hot yearning with daring humor, Jamie Quatro's debut collection is a beautiful and disquieting portrait of infidelity, faith, and family. The hypnotically personal, urgent testimonies in I Want showing You More are about lives extended between spirituality and sexuality in the brand new North american South. In narrative modes ranging from the original to the fabulist, these testimonies are interconnected explorations of God, illicit gender, elevating children and running. Jamie Quatro's testimonies confront us with dark theological complexities, fractured marriages, and mercurial temptations: a partner returns with her man to find her lover's corpse in their bed; a teenager attends a Bible Camp where he seduces a young tumor survivor with hopes of treating his own rare condition; marathon athletes on a Civil Warfare battlefield must hold phallic statues and are punished if they choose to unload their burdens; a girl's humiliation over participating in a pool party with her quadriplegic mom turns to fierce devotion under the pitying gaze of other friends; and a man asks his partner to show him how she'd make want to another man. I Want showing You More unleashes Quatro's exhilarating expertise for revealing the noiseless terrors of modern life with stunning and subversive energy.
