"A supremely perceptive writer of formidable skill and intelligence," (New York Times Book Review), Tessa Hadley is the author of four critically acclaimed novels, including The London Train, a New York Times Notable Book. A regular contributor to The New Yorker, Hadley returns to the short story form in this brilliant collection, her first since the celebrated Sunstroke and Other Stories. Married Love showcases beautifully her formidable talent for writing domestic fiction that rises about the genre to become literary art.

Product Description:
Language:English.Married Love: And Other Stories
Review:
"Filled with exquisitely calibrated gradations and expressions of class, conducted with symphonic intensity and complexity....[An] understatedly beautiful collection....Extraordinarily well-made."--Stacey D'Erasmo, New York Times Book Review

"Hadley's power...is best felt as she teases out the often dangerous crackles in the air and cracks in the heart. There's a louche tautness to her prose..."--Helen Davies, Sunday Times (London)

"One of the most interesting writer around....This collection shows a writer quietly growing in style, perception and grace. She conveys to the reader that rare ability to see completely into someone else's head."--Philip Womack, The Spectator

"Married Love...could more accurately be described as a concentration, not a collection, of short stories. The stories here are, in effect, a dozen novels in miniature....There is a grand sweep and an emotional charge that brings to mind DH Lawrence."--Elena Seymenliyska, Daily Telegraph (London)

"There is not a lot of domestic bliss to be found in these finely rendered stories, but there are many small moments of everyday life made recognizable by an exceptional storyteller. Highly recommended."--Library Journal

"Hadley's command of the telling detail, the unspoken riposte, and the subtle interpersonal struggles that fuel everyday human actions infuses this collection with both saucy fire and sobering fatalism."--Booklist

"Her talent is to take these small details of everyday life and build them into stirring narratives....Hadley gives space to the smallest emotional currents, allowing them to expand."--Susannah Meadows, New York Times

"A feast of angst and disappointment."--Evening Standard (London)

"A British writer whose work probes the dangers and joys of family life, Tessa Hadley writes like a dream, even if some of her stories can haunt you like a nightmare....Hadley's measured, perfectly controlled prose masterfully chronicles her characters' turmoil; these stories are gemlike and unforgettable."--Kate Tuttle, Boston Globe

"[Hadley's stories] are often like movie clips of lives in transit, their small shifts of focus yielding up flashes of psychological insight. . . . Hadley excels at the domestic context, at pinpointing the particular quiddity on which an individual character turns; at marking the tiny swings of allegiance in human relationships."--Rachel Hore, The Independent

New Paperback Quantity: 1

Grand Eagle Retail

Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. In this brilliant collection, Tessa Hadley showcases beautifully her formidable talent for writing domestic fiction that rises about the genre to become literary art."Filled with exquisitely calibrated gradations and expressions of class, conducted with symphonic intensity and complexity. Extraordinarily well-made."--New York Times Book ReviewMarried Love is a masterful collection of short fiction from one of today's most accomplished storytellers. These tales showcase the qualities for which Tessa Hadley has long been praised: her humor, warmth, and psychological acuity; her powerful, precise, and emotionally dense prose; her unflinching examinations of family relationships.Here are stories that range widely across generations and classes, exploring the private and public lives of unforgettable characters: a young girl who haunts the edges of her parents' party; a wife released by the sudden death of her film-director husband; an eighteen-year-old who insists on marrying her music professor, only to find herself shut out from his secrets.Hadley evokes worlds that expand in the imagination far beyond the pages, capturing domestic dramas, generational sagas, wrenching love affairs and epiphanies, and distilling them to remarkable effect. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Seller Inventory # 9780062135643
