Synopsis:
A debut collection of short fiction explores the lives of modern women and their families, dreams, friendships, and fears in such works as "The Language Event," in which an estranged brother and sister work together to organize a reunion, and "Rembrandt's Bones," about an art history teacher coping with the suicide of a student and the sudden death of a favorite aunt. Reprint.
Synopsis: Warmhearted humor, quirky relationships, and playful turns of plot distinguish this charming story collection from Phyllis Moore. So do the somewhat frivolous, somewhat valiant, and mostly misguided women of Moore's fractured world. Beautifully written and immediately accessible, A Compendium of Skirts is a moving, wise, and heartwarming book about life and love in our time. Poignant, mischievous, and very, very funny, Phyllis Moore's fiction debut limns the curious, confounded lives of women in flux.
