In "Domestic Terrorism," a thirtysomething son refuses to leave home, resulting in a standoff that renders him a millennial cause clbre. In "The ChapStick," a middleaged man subjugated by service to his elderly father discovers that the last place you should finally assert yourself is airport security. In "Vermin," an artistic Brooklyn couples purchase of a ramshackle house destroys their oncepassionate relationship. In "The Subletter," two women, both foreign conflict junkies, fight over a claim to a territory that doesnt belong to either.Exhibiting a satisfying thematic unity unusual for a collection, this masterful work showcases the biting insight that has made Shriver one of the most acclaimed writers of our time.
