Sound good to you?

Do...

Cancer
Dementia
Hospital visits
deaths
funerals
marital infidelity
sexual promiscuity

...all sound good to you? Well, if so -- then I've got a book for you! Antonya Nelson's latest story collection features all of the above. Nelson interests me because she is compared to writers like Lorrie Moore and Ann Beattie -- two of my favorite writers working today. Also, who can beat a collection of stories written about the most dysfunctional of families - the American white middle-class family?
