Von Händler/Antiquariat, Wisepenny.
These stories of upper-middle-class family life concern relationships between men and women, mistrust and infidelities, broken families, and stepparents and stepchildren. With characteristic delicacy and empathy, Robinson probes the terrible emotional constrictions her characters suffer in such stories as "Handicapped," "The Time for Kissing," and "Tears Before Bedtime." Other stories trace the complexities of friendship and forgiveness and the devotion and resignation of old age. In the title story, a suspicious wife makes much of her husband's casual lunch date, recalling her own affair and that of a couple seen by chance on the street--in "a moment of widening freedom, possibility" implied merely by "a glimpse of scarlet" in the woman's scarf or sleeve. Robinson's stories have been published in The New Yorker , Atlantic , and Southern Review . She is also the author of the novel Summer Light ( LJ 6/1/88) and Georgia O'Keeffe: A Life ( LJ 9/15/89). A touchingly intimate, human collection. Paperback, Ausgabe: Reprint, Label: Perennial, Perennial, Produktgruppe: Book, Publiziert: 1992-06, Studio: Perennial, Verkaufsrang: 2601288.

Acclaimed author Roxana Robinson's collection runs the gamut of emotion, with characters facing shifting family dynamics and moments of personal crisis: marriage and remarriage, the delights and struggles of raising children, the lure of illicit romance, and the bitter acrimony of divorce. Robinson draws her charactersincluding disaffected stepchildren, seemingly well-meaning in-laws, and adult children coping with aging parentswith compassion and a deep understanding of the heart's capacity for pain, hope, and growth. Second Chances examines the complications of arranging a Thanksgiving dinner in a family of second marriages, former spouses, and stepchildren, where connections are tenuous at best and spiteful and destructive at worst. In Graduation, a woman dreads attending her son's boarding-school festivities, where she will see the vindictive ex-husband she hasn't spoken to in years. And another mother finds her own desires threatened by her young daughter's blossoming independence in Daughter. Through the nuanced experiences of the complex and flawed characters in her debut story collection, Robinson expertly probes the universal complexities of friendship and forgiveness, love and devotion, separation and reunion, echoing the wit and grace of John Cheever, Henry James, and Edith Wharton. eBook.
