Quirky and controversial

Sound like you? Well then, Francesca Lia Block might be right up your alley. Influenced by magic-realists Isabel Allende and Gabriel Garcia Marquez, she describes her writing as “contemporary fairy tales with an edge.” Her novels cover disparate subjects such as fairies (of course), rock bands, movie making, gay teenagers, anorexia, rape, incest and (mostly) Los Angeles.
