I just finished "House Fires," by Nancy Reisman. It won the Iowa Short Fiction Award in 1999.
Wonderful, beautifully crafted, elegant stories. I highly recommend it!

I'll look out for this, Kat.
I'm about two thirds of the way through the Robison stories. Enjoying them very much. Very understated and deft writing. Great grasp of character.
I haven't read Robison's collection yet. You're speaking of Mary, right?
I thought I'd got the recommendation from you. Either here or in your room at Zoe. Tell Me 30 Stories it's called.
I'm going crazy!
Very good anyway.
Hahaha!!! I DID recommend it! Uh oh. I'm beginning to show my "forty." ;)
You did? Ha-ha. Well at least I'm fine!
