Saints Don't Dance is an experimental, erotic short story. Toeing the line between the concrete and the abstract, Devio blends sexuality with scripture to explore the mythology of desire.
The story follows recently divorced Elody as she slips into sapphic yearning. After the mysterious Lyra enters the bar that Elody wandered into in search of a drink, they embark on a journey of faith and flesh, trapped between prayer and want.
Erotic and just sacrilegious enough that Devio can never admit its existence to her Catholic family, Saints Don't Dance is a hymn for those of us who toe the line between worship and loneliness—who stayed quiet too long.
