"Kristin Bair O'Keeffe's Thirsty has all the power of a small miracle. The mysteries of nineteenth century, small town factory life-the sudden appearance of thousands of butterflies, an extraordinary affliction of hiccups, a talking bird-brilliantly transcend the accumulation of everyday cruelties. A remarkably good read."
-Joe Meno, author of The Great Perhaps and Hairstyles of the Damned
"Thirsty is a beautiful tale, vivid and gently told. It is the story of one woman's incredible strength of spirit, and a reminder of the foundation contemporary America is built upon-one of unspeakable cruelty, and Job-like suffering, as well as generosity and unbreakable hope."
-Don De Grazia, author of American Skin
