€5.00

Quay Books
Personal Velocity is a collection of 7 stories by the author Rebecca Miller (daughter of the playwright, Arthur Miller). The collection is a series of eye-opening portraits of women who are either struggling to attain self-knowledge or who are hopelessly plagued by it. - Los Angeles Times
The vibrantly fresh and lustrous stories in Miller’s collection explore the multifaceted lives of women in seven arresting portraits. Modern and diverse, these women of different classes and ages struggle with sexuality, fate, motherhood, infidelity, desperation, and an overriding will to survive.
The Guardian said that Miller's "cinematic talent comes shining through - emotionally and intellectually, every tale in this debut volume is a quick fix, a burst of clarity delivered at breakneck speed. This is an excellent book; a future award-winner, if the gods are just."
