Emergency Exit

by Carissa Halston, Emily Wojcik (Introduction)

"Emergency Exit" unfolds in the disjointed chronology of the perpetually jet-lagged, skipping over months as easily as airplanes cross time zones. In the slight surreality of this enclosed world, Carissa Halston's stewardesses reveal themselves as dark, complicated, fully realized human beings, capable of rage, apathy, humor, compassion, efficiency. . . even friendship.
