A collection of short stores that explore people's desire for connections.
Sandra Novack has earned great acclaim with her short fiction, which has appeared in more than thirty literary venues, including "The Gettysburg Review, Gulf Coast, "and "The Iowa Review." Now, in this new collection of stories, she further demonstrates her mastery of the form while exploring a universal theme: the desire for connection.
In "Cerulean Skies," a wife must deal with her husband's artistic calling while reexamining the loss of her own creative passion. A young woman is forced to confront the truth of her past, and its affect on her present love life, when she inherits her late dad's possessions in "My Father's Mahogany Leg." In "Memphis" a man walks a delicate line between caring for his schizophrenic brother and keeping his new marriage afloat. "The Thin Border Between Here and Disaster" finds two married college professors faced with the fallout from their divorce, and a boy wrestles with his faith after the death of his mother in "Morty, El Morto."
Fierce, sexual, and contentious, these moving tales place Sandra Novack's prodigious talent on full display. "Everyone but You" illuminates the common truths behind some of the most profound moments in our lives.
