A collection of stories by

 
 
Ellen Gilchrist, winner of the 1984 American Book Award for fiction, offers new proof of her creative talent in I CANNOT GET YOU CLOSE ENOUGH.

The three novellas in this collection--"Winter," "De Havilland Hand" and "A Summer in Maine"--explore the human heart and its ties to family. No one has written with greater insight about that much maligned but basic unit, the "family of origin." Gilchrist understands the "why" of it.

"Loving attention to the eccentricities and activities of an extended clan." (Washington Post Book World)
