So begins the title story in this stellar first collection of witty, wry, darkly humorous writing. Like Marta, many of the characters swing between love and mourning, blurring boundaries with their stubborn hearts and bones. Karen Smythe's stories are both startingly contemporary and richly furnished with the desolation and consolation of memory. Stubborn Bones is a nuanced, wise, and witty debut collection by a remarkably accomplished writer.
