 Fourteen superbly-crafted tales...that explore the most vital crises of existence, when human emotions—desire and isolation, suspicion and jealousy—boil over, leaving in their wake exquisite failure and a conflict that blooms in complexity every time the reader revisits it. Straightforward prose that performs plenty of emotional and foreshadowing work, tight, convincing dialogue, and an eye for apt metaphors… [A]s strong as anything in the Raymond Carver playbook, without ripping off the minimalist master. In 14 brilliant short stories, Taylor unpeels the lives and loves of ordinary people to reveal nuggets of extraordinary truths...Deceptively spare and absolutely unforgettable.  These 14 lively tales...uncover gentle irony in the commonly held notion of a successful life. The stories span the globe... but they are linked with the common truth that ordinary life is full of uncommon conversations, happenings, and revelations. Premi e riconoscimenti
