Jessi Jezewska Stevens's debut novel THE EXHIBITION OF PERSEPHONE Q has received glowing reviews from Booklist, Bookforum, Publisher’s Weekly, and Kirkus. Booklist calls Percy a “quirky and vivid narrator” and says that “the book’s poetic language and realistically absurd characters will keep readers intrigued until the final page." Additionally, Bookforum’s Justin Taylor writes: “Jessi Jezewska Stevens is a promising, persuasive new writer, and I will be surprised if this doesn’t turn out to be one of the strongest debut novels of 2020." The novel has also been named a most anticipated book of 2020 by The Wall Street Journal, Vogue, and Literary Hub. Farrar, Straus and Giroux will publish the book on March 3, 2020.
