“Sittenfeld zooms in on urban Midwesterners dealing with middle-aged disillusions in this witty story collection…In one sparkling comedy of manners after another, the author documents with a clear and affectionate eye how tiny prejudices and blind spots lead her protagonists astray. These stories entertain and unsettle in equal measure.”–Publishers Weekly This moving collection (Curtis’s second since 2018’s You Think It, I’ll Say It) includes a story that revisits the main character from her iconic novel Prep (which will celebrate its 20th anniversary next year!). Through stories such as “The Patron Saints of Middle Age,” in which a woman visits two friends she hasn’t seen since her divorce, and “A for Alone,” featuring a married middle-aged artist embarks on a creative project intended to disprove the so-called Mike Pence Rule, which suggests that women and men can’t spend time alone without lusting after each other, Sittenfeld shows why she’s as beloved for her short fiction as she is for her novels.
