      About This Book

      In this collection of short stories, the author portrays the magnified misunderstandings of childhood - the frustrations of truths witheld, the jealous need for belonging and yet for privacy. She observes the guilt and confusion death brings to the living and explores motherhood and marriage. Mary Gordon is also the author of "Men and Angels".
