Following on from her award-winning first novel, "Trumpet," comes a collection
of superlative stories.
In true Kay style, these small masterpieces cover a great deal of emotional and
narrative terrain, from an immaculate observation of the female physiognomy to
the bewilderment of the elderly; from silent hidden love to a lifetime
reminiscence of an immigrant's England. Warm and tender, frightening and funny,
these stories confirm the arrival of a major storyteller.
