- Summary:
- The National Book Award finalist explores contemporary gender realities in a collection of short fiction that traces the experiences of diverse characters at various stages of life.
- With sons and lovers, seducers and friends, husbands lost and regained, or husbands who were never husbands at all, how many men does can a woman's lifetime hold? What does it mean to be a man and a woman together; or a man and a woman, once together and now apart? Krauss's stories illuminate the moments in the lives of women in which the forces of sex, power and violence collide. -- adapted from Amazon info
