A beautiful hardcover edition of the collected stories of one of America's most revered and admired authorsoriginally published in the acclaimed collections SelfHelp, Like Life, Birds of America, and Bark and including three additional stories excerpted from her novels.Moore is one of Americas most revered writers, and this careerspanning collection showcases her exceptional talent for leavening tragedy with humor, for blending sorrow with subversive wit. Her keenly observed stories are peopled by a variety of lost soulshusbands, wives, lovers, tourists, professors, students, even a ghostwho are often grappling with pain or disappointment: a divorced man obsessed with selfhelp books, a washedup Hollywood actress living in a hotel, a woman with a terminal illness.But however lovelorn or dislocated the charactersfrom the wisecracking wedding guest in Thank You for Having Me to the selfdeluded musicians in Wings to the complicated parentchild pairs in How to Talk to Your Mother (Notes) and The Kids Guide to Divorcetheir stories are always grounded in insight and compassion. Moores portraits of the parents of a seriously ill child in People Like That Are the Only People Here and of a woman haunted by guilt over the death of her friends baby in Terrific Mother achieve a notably unsentimental and yet quietly devastating power.Whether moving or darkly funny, all of these pieces channel the messiness of the human condition through Moores characteristically knowing, wry voice, and together they confirm her as a master of the short story.
