Women's Fiction
Amy Bloom was nominated for a National Book Award for her
first collection, Come to Me, and her fiction has
appeared in The New Yorker, Story, Antaeus, and other
magazines, and in The Best American Short Stories
and Prize Stories: The O. Henry Awards.
In her new collection, she enhances her reputation as a
true artist of the form.
Here are characters
confronted with tragedy, perplexed by emotions, and
challenged to endure whatever modern life may have in store.
A loving mother accompanies her daughter in her journey to
become a man, and discovers a new, hopeful love. A
stepmother and stepson meet again after fifteen years and a
devastating mistake, and rediscover their familial affection
for each other. And in "The Story," a widow bent on seducing
another woman's husband constructs and deconstructs her
story until she has "made the best and happiest ending"
possible "in this world."
