Description:
In a collection named a finalist for the National Book Award, a New York Times Notable Book, and a Publishers Weekly Best Book of the Year, Jean Thompson limns the lives of ordinary people -- a lonely social worker, a down-and-out junkie, a divorced cop on the night shift -- to extraordinary effect. With wisdom and sympathy and spare eloquence, she writes of their inarticulate longings for communion and grace.
Expand description
In the title story, Judy feels that she is so invisible she can't even get caught shoplifting. In "Heart of Gold", Ginny, overcome by loneliness, considers fainting in front of an auto mechanic just so he'll touch her. Yet even the saddest situations are imbued with Thompson's characteristic humor and a wry glimmer of hope.
With Who Do You Love, readers will discover a writer of rare insight into the resiliency of the human spirit and the complexities of love.
