Literature and Fiction
In her first story collection in over eight years, National
Book Award winner Ellen Gilchrist presents readers with ten
different scenarios in which people dealing with forces
beyond their control somehow manage to survive, persevere,
and triumph, even if it is only a triumph of the will. From
the very young to the very old, in one way or another, they
are fighters and believers, survivors who find the strength
to go on when faced with the truth of their mortality. And
they are given vivid life in these stories told with Ellen
Gilchrist’s clear-eyed optimism and salty sense of humor.
