Acerca de esta escucha

From the Booker Prize nominee and New York Times best-selling author of Great Circle, a piercing, irresistible first collection of short stories exquisite in their craft and audacious in their range


A love triangle plays out over decades on a Montana dude ranch. A hurdler and a gymnast spend a single night together in the Olympic village. Mistakes and mysteries weave an intangible web around an old man’s deathbed in Paris, connecting disparate destinies. On the slopes of an unfinished ski resort, a young woman searches for her vanished lover. A couple’s Romanian honeymoon goes ominously awry, and, in the mesmerizing title story, a former child actress breaks with her life in a Hollywood cult.

In these and other stories, knockout after knockout, Maggie Shipstead delivers another “extraordinary” (New York Times) work of fiction and seals her reputation as a writer of “breathtaking range and skill” (Kirkus Reviews). Rich in imagination and dazzling in its shapeshifting style, You Have a Friend in 10A excavates the complexities of love, sex, and life in ways unsparing and hilarious, sharp-eyed and tender.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“Brilliant, funny, and occasionally alarming . . . Maggie Shipstead's first story collection, You Have a Friend in 10A, reinforces the extensive talent on display in her first three novels. The work is convincing in any setting and any mode, whether it be quiet years on a Montana ranch (\"The Cowboy Tango\"), exploration of the Parisian catacombs (\"Souterrain\"), or a showcase of celebrity-infused horrors in Los Angeles (the titular story.) Shipstead seems to move effortlessly from plane to plane, bringing trademark eloquence and humor to each landscape she chooses . . .
[You Have a Friend in 10A] exhibits flourishing talent and general curiosity.” – Minneapolis Star Tribune

"Immersive . . . [Shipstead] likes to ground her fiction in reality and has a penchant for research, with an ear tuned to social codes and niche terminology . . . There is a generous spirit beneath Shipstead’s controlled, sometimes finicky style." The New York Times

“The stories in You Have a Friend in 10A chart the evolution over more than a decade of [Shipstead’s] unnerving ability to capture a character’s inner life in a few choice phrases and to pinpoint the unique collision of personality flaws that will trigger the story’s drama . . . It’s a rare writer who can create a world as convincingly over a few pages as in a 600-page novel; Shipstead’s fluency in both forms is testament to the skill she modestly casts as a work in progress.” The Guardian

Good for car rides

Great characters. Great plots although in some stories it seems the author couldn’t find a suitable ending— so it drifts into the ether. However it’s ok because the characters awere so interesting.
