Summary:

"This new collection reveals Lorrie Moore at her most mature and in a perfect configuration of craft, mind, and bewitched spirit, as she explores the passage of time and summons up its inevitable sorrows and hilarious pitfalls to reveal her own exquisite, singular wisdom. Here are people beset, burdened, buoyed; people coping with large dislocation in their lives; people risking a new path toward connection. Eight masterly stories deliver a heartrending mash-up of the tragic and the laugh-out-loud--the hallmark of life in Lorrie-Moore-land"--Back cover.
