Kincaid may well blossom into one of the better storytellers around." Publisher's note"Women always know more about the facts of life because most of the facts happen to women," writes a mother to her daughter in the title story of this breathtaking collection, which goes on to prove just that.Nanci Kincaids eight exquisite stories deftly capture the kind of moments a woman never forgets. Watching the mysterious transformation of your mother as she dolls herself up for a night on the town--with a man other than your father. Watching your best friend fall for the bad boy in town. Wondering if the man at work youre secretly in love with means something by the hand he lets linger on your arm. Kissing a man named Gable on a moonlit night when youve just found out you have only a few months left to live.With an irresistible narrative voice that captures both the humor and heartbreak of love, Nanci Kincaid paints a portrait of women's lifelong courtship with men that will make you laugh and cry in recognition. These eight exquisite stories from the award-winning author of "Crossing Blood" capture with extraordinary clarity those moments in life that women never forget. AnnotationIn this book, eight stories focus on people--mostly Southerners and mostly women--and their frustrations with their romantic relationships. This is the novelist's first collection of stories.
