In a set of eleven stories, the critically acclaimed novelist Zane Kotker pulls readers into the lives of characters caught in apparently inescapable situations. - Cast off by her lover, a woman seeks to thwart her loneliness with a trip to Central America. - A Moroccan with a green card sets out to prove his father wrong. - Two pregnant women-one Iraqi and one American- have reason to fear for the lives they carry within. - An escapee from Manhattan spends her days teaching second grade on Connecticut's Gold Coast and her nights with a fellow renter across the hall. - The wife of a disabled man comes to understand the Declaration of Independence in a new way: "It's only the pursuit we're guaranteed, not the happiness." - Caught up in the deaths of their mothers, two old friends face the darkness of a summer night together. Of these stories the novelist Rosellen Brown says, "So smart, so rich with knowledge and full of feeling."
