Arlene Sanders is one of the freshest new voices in American fiction today. In Tiger
Burning Bright she paints her characters with brush strokes both bold and demure, but
always with the precise control of the true artist, aiming always for the frangible heart of
the human condition. At the core of this collection is an aching knowledge of the
isolation of those who still carry, with fierce courage and despite their loneliness, the fire
of hope within them. And there are characters who will make you afraid to turn off the
lights. I guarantee that once you finish this remarkable book you will not be able to get
the lyrics to “Ten Cents a Dance”out of your head.
