Über diesen Titel

Reseña del editor:

Since the publication of "Self-Help", her first collection of stories, Lorrie Moore has been hailed as one of the greatest and most influential voices in American fiction. Her ferociously funny, soulful stories tell of the gulf between men and women, the loneliness of the broken-hearted and the yearned-for, impossible intimacies we crave. Gathered here for the first time in a beautiful hardback edition is the complete stories along with three new and previously unpublished in book form: "Paper Losses", "The Juniper Tree", and "Debarking".

Contraportada:

‘Moore, while fascinated almost exclusively with broken people, is among the very funniest writers alive. She is known for this, and other writers are known for this, too, I guess, but there is perhaps no other writer who balances the two so precariously, so perfectly.’ Dave Eggers ‘The fact that Moore is such a delight – so easy – to read should not make one forget what a major writer she’s become.’ Geoff Dyer ‘Witty, but never merely clever, and tender without sentimentality.’ Hilary Mantel ‘A true observer of millennial unease.’ Anita Brookner
