The author's first big collection of short prose brings together everything familiar from her novels: brevity and a fairy-tale air, precise detail and poetry, lightness and weight. Behind the curtain of the everyday, each story finds something that upsets the order of things and tears people out of routine. Running through them is the idea that the art of living is the art of finding joy in whatever we do, and that a short existence offers riches it would be a sin not to use.
