Oksana Behave! book cover

Writers’ Workshop graduate Maria Kuznetsova will read from her uproarious novel, Oksana, Behave! “What luck for readers that Oksana can't behave! Little devil, infinite imbecile, poor futureless child—all the names her displaced, loving family give to her as she crashes and burns and wanders the wilderness of her inheritance, fit perfectly . . . This novel is a stark, hilarious delight." —Paul Harding

Maria Kuznetsova was born in Kiev, Ukraine, and moved to the United States as a child. Her fiction has appeared in The Southern Review, McSweeney’s Quarterly Concern, Mississippi Review, and Kenyon Review Online. She lives in Iowa City with her family.
