Here We Are in Paradise — Tony Earley

Set in the big cities, tiny hamlets, mountain hollows, and tourist towns of North Carolina, the acclaimed stories of Here We Are in Paradise are alive with the mysteries of the human heart. In the award-winning "Charlotte," the departure of the local professional wrestling league intensifies a young bartender's battle to get his girlfriend to admit she loves him. In "Here We Are in Paradise," a woman losing her life to breast cancer nerves herself up to tell her husband that he has never understood her, and then realizes how little it matters. These much-praised stories create entire worlds and indelible moments as only the best short fiction does.
