Reviews for Machine
'Steinberg shifts backwards and forward in time, just as her prose shifts into a kind of poetry. The result is a glittering, knifelike reflection of despair through the eyes of a young woman, made richer by the fact that it's told in hindsight' - New Yorker 'Otherworldly, and every-other-line sublime, Machine reads like the text messages Laura Palmer might ...
