- Summary:
- "The stories in What Did You Do Today? explore the ordinary and the offbeat as if they were one and the same, asking what it's like to be alive and what makes us human. With warmth, humor, and wonder, these stories suggest that the past is always alive in the present and that even the most fleeting relationships have the power to change us forever. In these short narratives, nothing is negligible, and all experience is transformative. "-- Provided by publisher.
