“…an American talent…”―Stephen King Pollack writes about times of tragedy and transition insightfully, aware of their everyday quality and of their gravity. In the Mouth is a window onto the amazing tenderness and irrationality of human life. One story, “The Bris,” has been selected for The Best American Short-Stories 2008 (Edited by Stephen King and Heidi Pitlor). “Eileen Pollock writes with great acuity, humor, and intelligent resign-ation about the various ways family love is called upon and revealed.
