Amy Hempel - The Collected Stories
I'm rereading "The Collected Stories of Amy Hempel" and loving it all over again. Highly recommended.
What a line: "The sound that I make is not food." from the opening story, "In a Tub." At NPR: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/s...toryId=5428036 |

Never heard of her. What kind of stories does she write?

She and Carver are my favorite short story writers. Easily one of my favorites of all time.
