Moon Trees and Other Orphans

Leigh Camacho Rourks' debut is a powerhouse, earning its place between O’Connor and Pollock. With sentences that burn and gothic, fearless tales, her stories are filled with incredible detail, misfits, and outcasts that are compellingly unnerving yet irresistible on the page. – Benjamin Percy

"Hot damn, this is a powerhouse debut. Leigh Camacho Rourks deserves a hallowed space on the shelf between Flannery O’Connor and Donald Ray Pollock. Every sentence burns like a black candle, and her stories are gothic and fearless and unsparing and barbed with wondrous detail and populated by the kinds of misfits and renegades and freaks you might feel nervous living next door to, but can’t get enough of on the page."

– Benjamin Percy
