Resumen
Amy Bloom has long been regarded as a master of the short story form. Here, her brilliance shines across two decades and more than twenty-five stories. From the bereaved widow who finds unexpected comfort in Sleepwalking, to the matchmaking shrink in Psychoanalysis Changed My Life; from the teenage girl furious at her dying mother in Hold Tight to the transgressive lovers of The Gates Are Closing; from the married friends irresistibly drawn to one another in William and Clare to the brave and heartless girl in Permafrost - these are stories brimming with life and grief, erotically charged and beautifully crafted.
