Rising Literary Talent Jamie Quatro Shows Us ‘More’

Grove/Atlantic published Barry Hannah, Charles Frazier and other celebrated Southern authors.  Now, Grove/Atlantic is adding Jamie Quatro to their roster.  Quatro’s debut collection of short stories,I Want To Show You More, comes out in March, and she visited WUTC for an interview.

(Story selections in this segment were read by Rachel Smith.)

Quatro has been called a “brilliant new voice in American fiction.”  Her work has appeared in prominent literary journals such as Ploughshares, The Southern Review andOxford American, where she’s a contributing editor.  Her stories are a mesmerizing mix of magic realism, Southern lit, family tragedies, musings on internet-age marital indiscretions, and nuanced portrayals of faith in the South.
