Set in New England during the 1980s, Krasne’s stories follow well-meaning people whose lives suddenly go in unexpected directions when desire and memory take over. Friends, wives and husbands, children and parents struggle to create a small, safe place of comfort and goodness, but when their bodies lead them astray, the results are touching, surprising, and humorous. Minor characters readers meet in early stories reappear front and center in later stories. As time, place, and events overlap, readers get to know a community, its varied inhabitants, and the lengths to which their wayward passions drive them.
The characters are extremely well written and each story's characters really come to life. The author does an excellent job of helping us feel their pain, loneliness, longings and the many other emotions that are described. I could feel as if I knew them and I wait to see where they will turn and which path they will follow. You want to hold their hand along the way or shake them awake.I am enjoying getting to know them.
