In this masterful, evocative collection of stories, Katherine L. Hester gives names and histories to those who often labor unnoticed, cleaning houses, washing dishes in restaurants, and installing security systems. Stunned to find themselves on the outskirts of American life where compromise and illusion meet, Hester's characters ache for more - more love, more money, more passion, more dignity, more control over their lives.
Inhabiting a fragile world where a lost paycheck, a sliced hand, or a packed suitcase can be ominous, they are balanced precariously between hope and calamity. Yet within these stories we find singularly brave individuals who resist despair and tenaciously fight for even the most tentative of human connections.
