Each of the nine stories in this beautifully written, intensely intimate collection centers on a transformative moment that alters the delicate balance of power between mother and son, or changes the way they perceive one another. With exquisite grace and eloquence, Tibn writes of men and women bound by convention, by unspoken emotions, by the stronghold of the past. Many are trapped in lives they would not choose again, if they ever chose at all.A man buries his mother and converts his grief to desire in one night. A famous singer captivates an audience, yet cannot beguile her own estranged son. And in "A Long Winter," Colm Tibn's finest piece of cction to date, a young man searches for his mother in the snowcovered mountains where she has sought escape from the husband who controls and confines her.Winner of numerous awards for his fifth novel, The Master including the Los Angeles Times Book Prize and the International IMPAC Dublin Literary Award Tibn brings to this stunning first collection an acute understanding of human frailty and longing. These are haunting, profoundly moving stories by a writer who is himself a master.
