This volume compiles the stories of Grace Paley, a finalist for the National Book Award (1994) and Pulitzer Prize (1995). It configures a magnificent fresco of life in a large city, narrated through a feminine and acidic gaze in a territory previously reserved for men. Whether writing about love and conflict between parents and children, or between men and women, or about the daily struggle of single mothers who grow older or activists who try to make sense of the world, Paley's exuberant and unconventional stories, written with her very personal and unmistakable voice, made her one of the most unique authors of her time. Combative, temperamental, ironic, harsh, an expert connoisseur of solitude, lust, comedy, selfishness and generosity.
Grace Paley, née Goodside, was an American short story author, poet, teacher, and political activist.
