Téa Obreht and Electric Lit!

Téa Obreht recommends “Paradeability” in Electric Literature! In her introduction to EL’s reprint of the first story in Encounters with Unexpected Animals: Stories, Obreht writes: “Johnston works a subtle magic in the characters’ tension and tentativeness with each other…Among the fascinating denizens Johnston spangles across the page, the pressure of the unsaid finally breaks down, shattering—as the best stories do—our illusions.”
