«The Little Disturbances of Man» is Grace Paley's collection of short stories, published by Penguin Publishing Group in paperback (192 pages, in English).
The stories in this volume, subtitled «stories of women and men in love», portray couples who love and argue, angry neighbours, job seekers and Jewish children rehearsing a nativity play. With irony and compassion, Paley captures the loneliness, humour and tenderness of everyday life in New York.
The work first appeared in 1959; this reissue was published in January 1985 in the Contemporary American Fiction series.
For readers of literary fiction and short stories interested in family life and mid-twentieth-century New York.
Grace Paley, née Goodside, was an American short story author, poet, teacher, and political activist.
