The twenty-seven stories that constitute The List range over a broad swath of human dilemmas, catching the critical moment in a person's life when that life is jolted into change and is altered irrevocably. From the knowledge in an entire town of the precise date of each inhabitants death and the consequences of that knowledge, to the discovery by a sensitive woman that the man she considered her father, a man she dearly loved, is not her father at all, to the story of a man who agrees to the prostitution of his wife in order to save his company, these stories bare the soul of otherwise ordinary people and their response to con men, tyrant bosses, thieves, infidelity, ungrateful children, betrayals of trust, over-protective mothers, abortion, madness, unhappy marriages, and other perils that menace us all. Everyone will find a bit of him or herself in these elegantly crafted stories.
