Description

Shortlisted for the 2018 Sunday Times EFG Short Story Award, this collection of ten scorching stories by Curtis Sittenfeld explores the theme of self-deception.

The stories are united by a common thread: how even the cleverest people tend to misread others, and how much we all deceive ourselves. From the witty observations of a woman who plays "You think it, I'll say it" at parties, to the surprising confessions of Hillary Clinton on the campaign trail, each story showcases Sittenfeld's knack for creating real, believable characters that spring off the page.

Sharp and tender, funny and wise, these stories skewer contemporary mores with brilliant dry wit. With its razor-sharp insights into human nature, this collection is a worthwhile read for anyone who loves smart, engaging fiction.
