Life / Insurance
winner of the 2022 Fugere Book Prize
a collage artist piecing together a life, a composer unable to talk,
and an interrogation into art and existence in New York City
That Night Alive
winner of the novella prize from Miami University Press
That Night Alive is half futuristic fiction and half meditative memoir.
“Beautifully paced, That Night Alive records a woman’s yearning to make something lasting in a post-apocalyptic world of surveillance and subterfuge where genuine art is forbidden. Tara Deal’s ambitious, inventive, continually surprising, and finely etched novella immerses us in a woman’s struggles and rewards the most close and attentive reading.”
—Lee Upton, author of The Tao of Humiliation
