Book Description:

First published in 1998 and now available in a new paperback edition, Gilbert's stories stretch from war-torn Bosnia to a college sorority house to kill-or-be-killed Hollywood. His bold prose and perceptive wit paint a devastating picture of normal life on the brink of desperation and paranoia and his insights into the minor tragedies, disappointments, and desires that shape us reflect a deep understanding of human nature and a genuine compassion for his characters.
