Megan Milks marks a new kind of daring with Kill Marguerite. The story runs with its variations on a theme and bends them with a retro twist: life in an old school video game. The result is a fresh, entertaining story with a heroine the reader lives and dies with, again and again, while continually forgetting that she is nothing but a pixelated image on a screen, whose volition is tied to the trivial push of an A or B button.

Megan Milks

Now based in Chicago, Megan Milks grew up in central Virginia and did time in Philadelphia. Her fiction tends to mix formal experiment and gender theory, and is largely influenced by the ghosts and shadows of Kathy Acker and Gertrude Stein. Of the living, she champions Aimee Bender, Chris Kraus, Lidia Yuknavitch, Elfriede Jelinek, Michelle Tea, Samuel R. Delany, and Francine Pascal. Etc, etc, ad naus. See also: Wreckage of Reason: An Anthology of XXperimental Women Writers; Fist of the Spider Woman: Tales of Fear and Queer Desire; DIAGRAM; Pocket Myths; and Mildred Pierce.
