Review

"ALL FALL DOWN is [Caponegro's] most approachable work to date....[She] maintains the eerie elegance and baroque grandeur she is known for....[O]ne could call most of these short fictions experiments in accessibility, stories that welcome readers and then pull the rug out. The gambit works. Hopefully, it will translate into increased readership for this deserving and deeply talented writer."

Annotation

In two novellas and four shorter tales of love and healing gone awry, we meet caregivers and lovers, muses and skydivers, mothers and minors--all headed toward "ninety mile-an-hour psychic crashes euphemistically referred to as epiphanies." As William Gass says, "The music of Mary Caponegro's stories is to the mouth what wine is." And through exuberant lyricism, remarkable characterization, and settings as elaborately detailed as any in Hollywood, these dramas of failure, resilience, and transformation linger long after the wine is gone.

The author of The Star Cafe, Five Doubts, and The Complexities of Intimacy, Mary Caponegro lives in the Hudson Valley and teaches at Bard College.
