This reissue of Grace Paley’s classic collection—a finalist
for the National Book Award—demonstrates her rich use of
language as well as her extraordinary insight into and
compassion for her characters, moving from the hilarious to
the tragic and back again. Whether writing about the love
(and conflict) between parents and children or between
husband and wife, or about the struggles of aging single
mothers or disheartened political organizers to make sense
of the world, she brings the same unerring ear for the
rhythm of life as it is actually lived.
