"In this collection, Hilma Wolitzer invites us inside the private world of domestic bliss, seen mostly through the lens of Paulie and Howard's gloriously ordinary marriage. From hasty weddings to meddlesome neighbors, ex-wives who just won't leave, to sleepless nights spent worrying about unanswered chain letters, Wolitzer captures the tensions, contradictions and unexpected detours of daily life with wit, candor and an acutely observant eye."--Back cover.

Rezensionen
Short stories that pack a pithy poignant punch by a 91-year-old mistress of the craft . From the first page, dialogue and descriptions crackle through the quotidian and Hilma's piquant prose illuminates scenes both prosaic and profound Harper's Bazaar
Today a Woman Went Mad in the Supermarket is electric: with wit, with rage, with grief, with the kind of prose that makes you both laugh and thrill to the darker, spikier emotions just barely visible under the bright surface. What a wonderful collection of stories
