Bathsheba Monk: Tight, Colorful, Breathtaking Tapestry

Bathsheba Monk has been making a splash in New York City lately with street productions enacting scenes from her novel, Nude Walker. She is also the author of a collection of linked stories called Now You See It … Stories from Cokesville, PA.

Tim O’Brien said “Bathsheba Monk is a writer I'll be talking about when I talk about brilliant new writers.”

Here’s what the brilliant Bathsheba Monk had so say about Tracks.


“From the first story in Eric D. Goodman’s novel in stories, Tracks, I knew I was in for an enjoyable ride. Goodman is a keen, compassionate and refreshingly un-ironic observer of the human condition. In Tracks, Goodman skillfully weaves stories of chance encounters, lost opportunities and new beginnings into a tight, colorful, breathtaking tapestry which he says is a train ride, but seems an awful lot like life.”

Nude Reading

It’s the weekend—time to get a little wild. How about some Nude reading?

I’m not talking about reading in the nude, although that’s not a bad idea. I’m suggesting you read the latest book by author Bathsheba Monk: Nude Walker (FSG).

Nude Walker, published earlier this year, is a novel all about change (and I’m not talking about changing clothes). Nude is actually Bathsheba’s debut novel; her first book was a collection of linked stories: Now You See It: Stories from Cokesville, PA.

There’s a great review of Nude Walker in Potomac Review. (Of course I may be a little bit biased. I wrote the review.)

Read “Stripping Down Change” in Potomac Review at the following link. Then, get Nude!
