An Excerpt From Mila Jaroniec’s “Plastic Vodka Bottle Sleepover”
Today, we’re pleased to run an excerpt of Mila Jaroniec’s novel Plastic Vodka Bottle Sleepover, due this November from Split Lip Press. Jaroniec will appear in conversation with Chloe Caldwell on November 15th at the book’s launch event in Brooklyn. Darcy Steinke had this to say about the book: “In Plastic Vodka Bottle Sleepover, Mila Jaroniec writes with a seer’s wisdom and a poet’s touch. Emotions are evoked in language both lovely and dangerous. I love the honesty and the beauty.”
