A propos de cet article

The author writes transcendent stories about the uncertain gestures of love, about the betrayals and gifts of the body and about the surprises and bounties of the heart. " At one achingly funny and heartbreaking, these stories live on long past the print and the page."---Jane Hamilton. N° de réf. du vendeur 001682

Synopsis :

Book by Bloom Amy

Présentation de l'éditeur:

Amy Bloom was nominated for a National Book Award for her first collection, Come to Me, and her fiction has appeared in The New Yorker, Story, Antaeus, and other magazines, and in The Best American Short Stories and Prize Stories: The O. Henry Awards . In her new collection, she enhances her reputation as a true artist of the form.

Here are characters confronted with tragedy, perplexed by emotions, and challenged to endure whatever modern life may have in store. A loving mother accompanies her daughter in her journey to become a man, and discovers a new, hopeful love. A stepmother and stepson meet again after fifteen years and a devastating mistake, and rediscover their familial affection for each other. And in "The Story," a widow bent on seducing another woman's husband constructs and deconstructs her story until she has "made the best and happiest ending" possible "in this world."
