Acerca de esta escucha

NATIONAL BESTSELLER • The bestselling author of Eligible and Romantic Comedy “blends acerbic wit, shrewd insight and sharp-eyed observation [in this] bravura collection” (The Washington Post), including a story that revisits the main character from her iconic novel Prep

“Each of these witty, intelligent stories is a slice of modern life.”—People

A New York Times Book Review Editors’ Choice

In her second story collection, Sittenfeld shows why she’s as beloved for her short fiction as she is for her novels. In these dazzling stories, she conjures up characters so real that they seem like old friends, laying bare the moments when their long held beliefs are overturned.

In “The Patron Saints of Middle Age,” a woman visits two friends she hasn’t seen since her divorce. In “A for Alone,” a married artist embarks on a creative project intended to disprove the so-called Mike Pence Rule, which suggests that women and men can’t spend time alone together without lusting after each other. And in “Lost but Not Forgotten,” Sittenfeld gives fans of her novel Prep a window into the world of her beloved character Lee Fiora, decades later, when Lee attends an alumni reunion at her boarding school.

Hilarious, thought-provoking, and full of tenderness for her characters, Sittenfeld’s stories peel back layer after layer of our inner lives, keeping us riveted with her utterly distinctive voice.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“A bit like sitting down with a good friend who’s about to dish on some major life business…. messy, delicious, spun through with bits of quotable wisdom . . . and complete with endings that will make you sit and think. . . . Showcasing the glory of her characters’ complicated lives and allowing them to speak with voices all their own is a kind of rebellion, and it’s exhilarating.”—The New York Times Book Review

“Utterly diverting . . . Sittenfeld’s worldview is more utopian than dystopian; Jane Austen-like, she treats her characters with humanity, even when their actions are cringe-inducing. . . . Sittenfeld is a sharp observer of social mores and an astute judge of character.”The Los Angeles Times

“A bravura collection [that] blends acerbic wit, shrewd insight and sharp-eyed observation to explore frustrated lives and the thornier, messier and grittier aspects of human relationships. . . . Expertly crafted and hugely engaging . . . supremely accomplished storytelling.”The Washington Post

Another wonderful anthology

I love the deceptive simplicity of these stories. They’re thought provoking and lift up off the page with relatability. Such a fan of Curtis Sittenfeld!

Weak

Trite and disappointing! Preordered in anticipation after loving her novel “Prep”. I recalled that I couldn’t put it down but this…could not finish.
