These characters . . . really aren’t like the rest of us, except—and this is the crucial part, this is why Barbash is worth reading—they hurt in precisely the same way we do.” — \u003ci\u003eThe New York Times Book Review\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe stories in Tom Barbash’s wondrous and evocative collection explore the myriad ways we try to connect with one another and with the sometimes cruel world around us.
