Things You Should Know: A Collection of Stories Paperback - 2003
by A. M. Homes
Twelve years after her debut novel "The Safety of Objects"that was recently made into a film, Homes once again unearths the dark side of domestic life in a handful of disturbing pieces.
First line
I am walking, holding a small screen, watching the green dot move like the blip of a plane, the blink of a ship's radar.
From the rear cover
In this stunningly original collection, A. M. Homes writes with terrifying compassion about the things that matter most. Homes's distinctive narrative illuminates our dreams and desires, our memories and losses, and demonstrates how extraordinary the ordinary can be. With uncanny emotional accuracy, wit, and empathy, Homes takes us places we recognize but would rather not go alone.
