Beskrivelse

Among the "best American short stories of the past two decades" (The Atlantic Monthly) from one of our most acclaimed writers.

In short stories "so vibrant and alive they have heartbeats, the prose so electric and dazzling it makes the pulse race" (Vanity Fair), a masseuse breaks her rich client's wrist bone, a friend visits at the hospital long after she is welcome, and a woman surrenders her husband to a creepily adoring student. With her singular brand of gorgeous dark humor, Joy Williams explores the various ways--comic, tragic, and unnerving--we seek to accommodate diminishment and loss, offering a rich examination of our capacity for transformation and salvation.
