Jenny and the Jaws of Life: Short Stories - Paperback
by Jincy Willett (Author)
Jincy Willett is the high priestess of dark comedy. The classic stories in this collection cut through every convention, every idea of normalcy, with empathy and fearless wit, undermining all the old ideas about the happy family, the good son, the dutiful mother. In Willett's world, perversity and tenderness walk hand in hand; there's laughter and funerals, ambivalence in the nursery, and redemption for the wicked. As David Sedaris writes in his foreword, I'm prepared to wear a sandwich board for this book. I can't help myself. It' just too good.
