Nineteen stories about loss, large or small, familiar or strange, including the kind that is still hard to name. A mother and daughter lose their closeness as the girl grows up; a small child becomes skilled at pretending while her parents' marriage comes to an end; someone grieves for a baby who need not be born into a cold family. Others deal with death, isolation, wounds within families and love left unfinished. Told with close attention to the characters' inner lives and their silent inner dialogue, the stories follow people who do not withdraw from life after a loss but carry its emptiness with them and keep going, looking for the most human way to accept what cannot be healed, only faced.
