Brilliant Collection of Short Stories
This collection of short stories won the Iowa School of Letters Award for Short Fiction.I found the stories wonderful.Of special note are the following:

1)Rue - A woman in her fifties hires a detective to trace her husband who deserted her after three months of marriage around thirty years ago.She wants him to give her a legal divorce, for him to look her in the eye and provide her with reason.She wants to try and understand.

2) Coelostat - This story is about a young girl whose mother is institutionalized and whose father is quite different from her.
"My mother earned her first and last American currency as a stenographer at the Nuremberg
trials.She spent most of the next 23 years at Maplecrest Psychiatric Hospital interpreting
atrocities in four languages".

3) Berkie - About a teen-age suicide.

4) Browsing - " 'How are you' he asks me.Irecall the grounds of our divorce: Irreconcilable
courtesy.He started it.I retaliated, viciously civil."

This is a brilliant collection of short stories, one that I have read three times.
