The eleven stories in Sweetlust interweave feminist critique, intertextuality, and science fiction tropes in an irreverent portrait of our past, present, and future.
In a dystopian world with no men, women are rehabilitated at an erotic amusement park. Climate change has caused massive flooding and warming in the Balkans, where one programmer builds a time machine. And a devious reimagining of The Sorrows of Young Werther refocuses to center a sexually adventurous Charlotte.
Asja Bakic deploys the speculative and weird to playfully interrogate conversations around artificial intelligence, gender fluidity, and environmental degradation. Once again Bakic upends her characters' convictions and identitiesas she did in her acclaimed debut Marsand infuses each disorienting universe with sly humor and off-kilter eroticism. Both visceral and otherworldly, Sweetlust takes apart human desire and fragility, repeatedly framing pleasure as both inviting and perilous.
Jennifer Zoble translates Balkan literature into English. Recent books include Call Me Esteban (Sandorf Passage 2021), her translation of Zovite me Esteban by Lejla Kalamujic, and Mars (Feminist Press 2019), which was selected by Publishers Weekly for the fiction list in its Best Books 2019 issue. She is on the faculty of Liberal Studies at New York University, where she teaches writing and translation.
