Jessica Treat's stories invite readers in, only to make them complicit in transgressive acts, real or imagined: adultery, trespassing , sexual jealousy. Her dark humor and portrayal of consciousness recall authors as diverse as Amy Hempel, Mary Caponegro, and Lydia Davis. Comic, skillful, and menacing, the stories in Meat Eaters & Plant Eaters haunt us long after we've fallen under their spell. Jessica Treat is author of two story collections: A Robber in the House (Coffee House Press) and Not a Chance (FC2). Her stories appear in anthologies and journals, including Ms. Magazine, Black Warrior Review, and American Literary Review.
Born in Canada, Jessica Treat grew up in New England and lived for a number of years in Mexico City. The author of two previous story collections: A Robber in the House (Coffee House Press), and Not a Chance (FC2), both in their second printings, Jessica Treat has long been known for her work in the short-short story form.
