Synopsis
Rachel Simon's debut, originally published in 1990, is a collection of stories about the struggle for love and intimacy, told from the point of view of adolescent girls, young mothers, and elderly women. Some are rooted in reality, others in magical realism, with tones ranging from serious to comic, sunny to dark. Throughout, Simon employs such a wide range of voices--sweet, shrewd, wistful, irascible, vulnerable, sensual--the Philadelphia Inquirer hailed her as "a literary ventriloquist." Among the highlights are "Little Nightmares, Little Dreams," in which an elderly couple enters the unknown by trying to dream the same dream; "Paint," in which a runaway-turned-artist's-model provokes protests after her naked body becomes the canvas; "Afterglow," in which a plucky thirteen-year-old playing hooky is held hostage by an escaped convict; "Grandma Death," in which an overbearing grandmother can't seem to go anywhere without someone dropping dead; and "Better Than A Box of Dreams," in which a maid irritated by her boss's dream therapy sessions dreams her own fondest wish back to life. Little Nightmares, Little Dreams was presented on NPR's Selected Shorts and the Lifetime program The Hidden Room. This 2014 rerelease includes four previously uncollected stories.

- u***u (77)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufI hate to complain, but I have to give this a neutral rating. I have tried twice to purchase this product - once in May and this time in September - but I have been sent the wrong item each time. The funny thing is I received the same wrong book each time. What I did receive was in great condition and packaged well. Also, the seller worked with me to get a refund, so I'm not listing this as negative. Anyway, I still want this book, but I don't know if I want to try them a third time.
