Product Information
A thief steals the air from a room. Children invent a nursery rhyme to make sense of their fate, and a band of girls rots from the outside in. These characters stumble through joy and murder and confusion, only to survive and wait for the next catastrophe to arrive. Moments so brief and disturbing you can't afford to look away. Jac Jamc's affecting stories mine the territory between what is real and what it means to create understanding. Jac Jemc 's My Only Wife was a finalist for the 2013 PEN/Bingham Prize for Debut Fiction. A web editor for Hobart and poetry editor at decomP , she lives in Chicago, Illinois.

Praise for A Different Bed Every Time: "To Jemc the world is a place where each person, every human cypher, must devour another. What then can we do, if we are devoured, if we are overcome with our own devouring? Her escape plan is inspired and ancient -- to become protean, to dwell in costume after costume, parcelling away the truth that can be found in each. But where is it hid? Ask her, though she may not say." — Jesse Ball, author of Silence Once Begun Praise for My Only Wife: "My Only Wife is a sneaky book. It guiles the reader with clean prose and apparent simplicity into believing that it's a novel about the narrator's only wife. It may be about many things -- about absence, emptiness, and loss -- but it really isn't about the narrator's only wife. It's more like an empty glass from the cupboard, an abstraction, a form, and it invites us to fill it with particulars from our own experience." —David Allan Barker, nouspique.com "Jac Jemc has written a novel so wonderful that if it were a dish served at a social event, I would ask the hostess for the recipe." -- NewPages.com Jac Lemc's novel My Only Wife is a brilliant, haunting, and heartbreaking debut that explores themes of loss and love." -- Large Hearted Boy The author sculpts her characters to reveal their bare form, which just happens to include their innermost flaws. She impressively closes the gap between objects and affects, emotion and experience, exactly what any attempt at accurately portraying our world requires." -- Smalldoggies Magazine A book whose sentences have become textures in my memory that I will keep with me." --Jess Stoner Jemc has done something quite extraordinary with her first novel. She has created a world that is at once familiar and at once strange. Just as the husband can never quite get close enough to his wife, the reader can never quite grasp where Jemc is taking her characters on their journey." -- Used Furniture Review In My Only Wife , Jac Jemc takes the noir and beauty and eternity of what we think is love and creates an entirely new narrative." --- The Nervous Breakdown I don't necessarily like the people in this book, but I understand these people and I love this book. And absolute pleasure to read, and I will cherish it on my bookshelf. I don't often reread novels, but this is definitely one I'll return to again and again." --Samuel Snoek-Brown Jac Jemc paints a devastating picture of what happens to the one who gets left behind in her debut novel My Only Wife ." --- The Next Best Book Blog End of the year Top Ten list at Volume I Brooklyn. Finalist for the PEN/Robert W. Bingham Award for debut fiction, Praise for A Different Bed Every Time: "To Jemc the world is a place where each person, every human cypher, must devour another.

Ask her, though she may not say." — Jesse Ball, author of Silence Once Begun "Jac Jemc is an artisan. A Different Bed Every Time stays with you long after you've finished reading. Every story is painstakingly crafted with words and imagery that are honed and placed just so, creating a mosaic you feel grateful, exhilarated, thrilled to experience." —Lindsay Hunter, author of Don't Kiss Me, and Ugly Girls Praise for My Only Wife: "My Only Wife is a sneaky book.

Finalist for the PEN/Robert W. Bingham Award for debut fiction, Praise for A Different Bed Every Time: Jac Jemc's stories are bright, sharp, mysterious gifts, designed to enchant and unsettle. Jemc is a boundlessly inventive talent, and A Different Bed Every Time is a mythic and essential collection. Prepare to be awed." -- Laura van den Berg, The Isle of Youth "To Jemc the world is a place where each person, every human cypher, must devour another.
