"Each of her collections demonstrates such linguistic skill, delicacy of vision, and . . . moral strength and clarity."-Chicago Tribune
A woman haunted by dreams of her dead mother. An adulterous couple stepping over the line where the initial excitement ends and the pain begins. A widow visiting a Scottish village in search of her husband's past-and instead discovering unsetting truths about a total stranger.
The miraculously accomplished stories in this collection not only astonish and delight, but also convey the unspoken mysteries at the heart of all human experience. The mastery-the almost numinous ability to say the unsayable-makes Friend of My Youth a genuine literary event.
