Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Winner of the 2025 Atlantic Book Awards Readers' Choice Award. A stunning debut collection of linked short stories exploring the promises and disappointments of modern life, edited by award-winning author Alexander MacLeod. These are the stories of the people who used to live next-door. The characters in Sue Murtagh's outstanding debut collection of linked short stories are at a crossroads. Middle-class, middling, they wrestle with the consequences of their decisions and powerful forces outside of their control. Whether it's a volatile housing market, the ever-present threat of illness, or the slow disintegration of a marriage, this community of neighbours finds themselves trapped between the idyllic promises of the North American dream and the stark realities of modern life. Mice infest every home a woman has ever lived in, no matter the domestic trappings. A charity golf tournament is an exercise in futility for a pair of married insurance entrepreneurs. At a community pool, profound grief manifests as rage. A grandmother's stories of generational trauma mutate in the retelling. And a suburban wildfire causes a young person to question the idea of home and the values of her parents' generation. Packing the punch of a novel, these thirteen deftly interwoven stories scrutinize the lives of everyday people with surgical precision, while finding connection and community in the unlikeliest of places. Edited by award-winning author Alexander MacLeod, We're Not Rich is a wryly observed and deeply-thoughtful collection, where nothing is quite as it should be, but everything feels true. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
