Things You Should Know is a collection of dazzling stories by one of the most talented and daring young American writers, whose distinctive narratives demonstrate how extraordinary the ordinary can be. A woman pursues an unconventional strategy for getting pregnant; a former First Lady shows despair and courage in dealing with her husband\'s Alzheimer\'s; a teacher\'s list of \'things you already should know but maybe are a little dumb, so you don\'t\' becomes an obsession for someone who wasn\'t at school the day it was given out; and adult tragedy intrudes into a childhood friendship. The stories are full of magic and strangeness and humour, but also demonstrate an uncanny emotional accuracy and compassion. Σελίδες: 224, Έτος Έκδοσης: 0404, Διαστάσεις: 12.7x12.7cm
