Mary Gordon recommends
Moonpies and Movie Stars (2006)
Amy Wallen
"To read MoonPies and Movie Stars is to take a delightful and exhilarating journey, kind of like being on a tour bus guided by Eudora Welty on speed."
The View from Stalin's Head (2004)
Aaron Hamburger
"To be American, Jewish, Gay, teaching English in Prague: this is the situation limned by Aaron Hamburger in his marvellous collection The View from Stalin's Head. Artfully crafted, funny, poignant, sharply observant of realities and anguishes, these stories introduce a voice as original and engaging as his subject matter. This is a succulent meal indeed!"
A Southern Exposure (1995)
Alice Adams
"Deliciously readable, evocative, sensuous, and intoxicating as a gossip with an old, smart friend."
