Description

In these nine surprising stories about love and the desertion of love, a father contemplates his bank balance amid receipts for ski vacations; a real-estate agent tries to sell a house while his small son bites other children; and a widower, resigned to television for company, discovers the pleasures of life with another woman. In Kevin Canty’s masterful collection, men convey the bitterness, tenderness, and humor of romantic relationships. Rarely is a man so revealing.

First words*
When the thing was over, Braxton sat down at the kitchen table of his apartment and tried to figure out what they had done with the money.
Last words*
(Click to show. Warning: May contain spoilers.)Through the open window came the perfume of a Midwestern spring, gasoline and roses and tar, the sounds of people gunning in the distance, the constant hiss of the interstate, the sounds of breaking glass and laughter, the sound of like itself.
