Summary

With Teeth: A Queer Family Unraveling

Critics Review

A gripping read … Unabashedly queer, probing and unafraid … Exceedingly engaging

* USA Today *Sublimely weird, fluently paced, brazenly funny and gayer still, and it richly deserves to find readers – Naoise Dolan * New York Times *

A beautiful, startling demystification of queer family … a portrait of a woman who is, at once, wholly ordinary and not quite like any literary mother who came before

– VogueAbsolutely captivating and scathingly frank … Arnett is that rare, brave writer willing to articulate the darkest thoughts even the best parents entertain while trudging along through the most challenging job in the world – Ron Charles * The Washington Post *Come for the wackiness and wonder of queer family dynamics, stay for the poignant portrait of motherhood on the brink * O, The Oprah Magazine *With Teeth is a wonderfully sticky novel about motherhood, partnership, sex and love. Kristen Arnett lets her characters have the run of the place, and it’s delicious fun to watch them do, say, and think things they’ll regret – Emma Straub, author of All Adults Here
