JOIN US!
Lucy is the author of four novels, a collection of short fiction, a collection of narrative nonfiction, and six books for kids. This, her most recent novel, is a story about three women – a geologist, a composer, and a galley worker – who have taken jobs in Antarctica. As they each fall in love and into trouble, their lives become more and more entwined – until one crisis binds them in friendship for life.
Bledsoe is the recipient of the 2009 Sherwood Anderson Prize for Fiction, the 2009 Arts & Letters Fiction Prize, the 2009 International Arts Movement Prize for Fiction, as well as a California Arts Council Fellowship, a PEN Syndicated Fiction Award, and an American Library Association Stonewall Award. Her stories have been published in dozens of journals, including Arts & Letters, Shenandoah, ZYZZYVA, Bloom, and Fictional International. Her novels have been translated into Japanese, Spanish, and German, and her stories into Dutch and Chinese. Her short story, “Girl With Boat,” has just been nominated for a Pushcart.
