Synopsis
In her first short story collection in eight years, Jill McCorkle returns to mapping the terrain between people who love one another despite their admittedly divergent expectations of what love is. In the wrenching title story, a woman's inane siblings force her to question her decision to sacrifice her own life to care for her dying mother. In "Another Dimension," an 11-year-old boy induces his younger sister to help him sabotage their dad's first attempt at romance after their mom's death, though as time stretches, their own relationship is the one that suffers most. All of McCorkle's heroines are intricately bound by love, either romantic or domestic, and they come to define themselves by their ability to find comfort within its confines.

Industry Reviews
"McCorkle specializes in righteous female rage, and in her new story collection she lets it fly....[She] is an expert at engineering catharsis through good salty rants, but the best thing about these stories is the sense of romance and wonder in long-overdue journeys of self-discovery."
(09/25/2009)

"McCorkle is adept at inserting...darkly funny notes into her stories, the perfect way of saving her characters from being too earnest and their stories from being downers. They laugh at themselves, and so we laugh, too. McCorkle channels the voice of an old friend telling us her woes -- and then cracks a joke."
