These stories dramatize the harrowing path from fear or abuse to hope and redemption. Whether mourning miscarried children while caring for a pregnant sister, surviving childhood sexual abuse in the Wisconsin woods, traveling in Italy after the death of a sister, or dealing with a mother's death by torturing a father's new girlfriend, characters confront the strangeness lurking beneath familiar domestic situations.
Marianne Herrmann holds a BA from Georgetown University and an MA in English/creative writing from the University of Minnesota. She studied art history at the Florence, Italy, campus of the University of Michigan. This is her first book.

"Intelligent, even brilliant, but never merely cerebral, these stories pulse with life. If you have ever wondered how life would appear without the dodges and filters we bring to our interactions, if you have ever yearned for an understanding broad and deep enough to bless and celebrate people's misaimed, tangled, confused yet determined attempts to love, then read these vivid, luminous, heartbreaking stories."--Richard Hoffman
