"Locascio's story of a young American abroad is unflinching in its portrayal of sex, desire, racism, and the excitement and confusion of youth. Infused with erotics and politics, this is a novel that will haunt you."--Viet Thanh Nguyen, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Sympathizer

Roxana Olsen has always dreamed of going to Paris, and after high school graduation finally plans to travel there on a study abroad program--a welcome reprieve from the bruising fallout of her parents' divorce. But a logistical mix-up brings Roxana to Copenhagen instead, where she's picked up at the airport by S ren, a twenty-eight year old guide who is meant to be her steward. Instantly drawn to one another, Roxana and S ren's relationship turns romantic, and when he asks Roxana to accompany him to a small coastal town for the rest of the summer, she doesn't hesitate to accept. There, Roxana's world narrows and expands as she experiences fantasy, ritual, and the pleasures of her body, a thrilling realm of erotic and domestic bliss. Seduced by this newfound connection, Roxana doesn't object when S ren requests that she spend her days alone in the apartment while he goes to the library to work.

As their relationship deepens, S ren's temperament darkens, and Roxana finds herself increasingly drawn to a local outsider, Zlatan, whom she learns is a Muslim refugee from the Bosnian War. The cycle of awakenings sparked by these two relationships challenge and open Roxana in ways she never imagined.

A coming-of-age like no other, from a magnetic new voice in fiction, Open Me is a daringly original and darkly compelling portrait of a young woman discovering her power, her sex, and her voice; and a propulsive exploration of estrangement and what it means to belong.

New mom jeans
Perfect Jean for my new postpartum bod! Was sad that none of my old jeans fit. I Was mourning them really-then I decided to just bite the bullet and buy some new jeans in my new size and these are them! They are relaxed enough for me to bend at the knees and not feel like I’m cutting off blood, but fitted enough that I don’t look like a slouch. I could technically have gone a size down and would have liked them but I appreciate some give in this phase of life. For reference I am 5’6 and 129 lbs and I got a 27

So cute and well-made
Great pants made very well, I was hoping they’d be a little longer when I folded them back down at the ankle. But a little too short for me I’m 5’7” which is perfect for us spring and summer, but not going into winter where I live. If you were 5’6” they might be perfect for wearing rolled up or down. It’s a good quality material. They feel very durable in the style is right on!

Classics! Good material with no stretch.
Size: 28, Color: Verified Vintage
I am in love with these jeans. I ordered another pair in a different wash. I also sized up two sizes but I like the looser, slouchy fit.

I love these. They fit perfect in the waist but are roomy else where.
