"In her first short story collection, [Smith] combines her power of observation and inimitable voice to mine the fraught and complex experience of life in the modern world. With ten ... stories complemented by a selection of her most lauded pieces for The New Yorker, The Paris Review, and Granta, [this book] explores a wide range of subjects, from first loves to cultural despair, as well as the desire to be the subject of your own experience"-- Provided by publisher.
