Featuring four new short stories and two big novellas, Anthony’s second story collection takes place on four continents and addresses issues from Alzheimer’s in South Africa to infertility in Wyoming to fishing for endangered sturgeon in Lithuania. The title novella won the National Magazine Award for Fiction, the second story has been called “a masterpiece of observed detail and intuitive poetic sense, like DeLillo at his best,” the fourth story won an O. Henry Prize, and the fifth story won a 2011 Pushcart Prize. Can a short story collection take you to more places and introduce you to more people than a novel?

Excerpts

Seventy-four-year-old Alma Konachek lives in Vredhoek, a suburb above Cape Town: a place of warm rains, big-windowed lofts, and silent, predatory automobiles.
