description: In this smart and original story collection, Heidi Jon Schmidt paints her subjects with delicate care. What emerges are characters that are both flawed and also absolutely lovable—flighty women married to unbearably academic men, a diligent psychotherapy patient obsessed with her middle-aged allergic therapist, a gaggle of would-be writers too concerned with marketing strategy to put words on paper. Sparkling with keen wit and sharp insight, this funny and observant story collection marks the return of an extremely gifted writer.
