Rat Girl: The New York Blogs, by Claudia Elena Rodriguez

Prose, chapbook, 32 pages, from Bottlecap Features.

Being a Rat Girl is not for everyone. Rat Girls eat when they can, usually trash. Rat Girls sleep where they can when they can- uncomfortably and never in the same place twice. If you’ve ever walked down the steps to the L-train off Starr and Wyckoff at the start of spring, you’ve probably seen one. You might’ve seen me.

Rat Girl is a compilation of journal entries and blog posts kept in 2023.

Claudia Elena Rodriguez is a Cuban-American writer and filmmaker from Miami, Florida. She sold her soul to the devil to live in Los Angeles, producing reality shows and blogging about low-brow culture on Wild Things.
