description: It is the stories upon which Cynthia Ozick's literary reputation rests. She writes about bitterness, cruelty and compulsion with brutal acuity and tenderness. She has created a timeless collection in which Greek mythology, superstition and the religious and cultural experience of the Jewish diaspora in America collide. In these stories, we see Ozick defining herself and her literary territory. This is a dazzling collection of short stories by an internationally celebrated novelist.
