MATING HABITS OF FIREFLIES ~ A Novel ~

A Story about Perception, Vulnerability, and the Healing Power of Art

From the BookLife Prize Critic’s Report:

“Mating Habits of Fireflies is a beautifully executed novel set in late 1960s-1970s California and Italy. Protagonist Emily Rowan, a deeply intuitive woman who interprets the world via her art, discovers a kindred soul in musician Danny Jackson, only to have their powerful connection interrupted by the Vietnam War.”

“…St. Clair's prose style is fluid, lyrical, and hypnotic…”

“Mating Habits of Fireflies is a richly told love story that is also deeply evocative of the era in which it is set. Music, art, and sensuality infuse the accomplished storytelling.”

"[St. Clair's] book impressed our team of Publishers Weekly reviewers, editors, and esteemed authors—and it's been featured in BookLife's Best of 2024 publication."

In this deput collection of poetry, St.Clair uses various voices and forms to explore her profound relationship with language, art, grief, politics, trauma, and the sacredness of place. Her work not only illuminates earthly curiosities we often overlook but also invites us to question our own understanding of these themes.
