Reviews
"The Kind of Things Saints Do is a daring and stunning debut collection. No one so young should be so brave. Laura Valeri is a virtuoso whose stories are wholly unpredictable yet completely inevitable. These tough, edgy, often unsettling tales remind us that the great appeal of fiction is the intimacy it affords us to characters' precarious lives and to our own trembling hearts."
