内容简介

A master of short fiction whose "best pieces are as good as it gets in contemporary cction" ("Newsday") returns, as Jean Thompson follows her National Book Award finalist collection "Who Do You Love" with "Throw Like a Girl."Here are twelve new stories that take dead aim at the secrets of womanhood, arcing from youth to experience. Each one of Thompson's indelible characters -- lovers, wives, friends, and mothers -- speaks her piece -- wry, angry, hopeful -- about the world and women's places in it.
