Somewhere a Long and Happy Life Probably Awaits You
Description
Somewhere a Long and Happy Life Probably Awaits You explores the peculiar places we look for validation, a purpose, a life we might recognize as wholly our own. As her off-kilter heroes and heroines struggle with relationships, Sexsmith deftly cuts through raw and intimate moments to show how strangely impervious to their desperate circumstances people can be.
Reviews
Jill Sexsmith's imagination goes where no imagination has gone before. Sexsmith's story collection Somewhere a Long and Happy Life Probably Awaits You breaks all the shackles and runs free with its heart in its fist. Sure-footed, really funny, poignant and wise. Here is the love-child collection of George Saunders and Joy Williams. Move over Miranda July, there's a new voice in town. --Lisa Moore
