  • "Poursuit l'exploration de coins de vies dévastées, des existences rattrapées par le passé. Un enfant regarde le bois d'une table où sont gravées des initiales, celles de sa mère. Un couple silencieux revit sans fin la mort de leur enfant unique. Une femme entend dans les murs de son appartement les cris de la petite fille qui a un jour été violée..."
  • "A debut collection of thirty-two pieces of short fiction explores the influence of life's brief but essential moments on the future lives of the characters as it chronicles the fates both of unrelated strangers and of two Jewish families, one from the East Coast, the other from the Midwest."
  • "One of the most acclaimed and original story collections of the last decade, Peter Orner's first book explores the brief but far-reaching occasions that haunt us. The discovery of a murdered man in a bathrobe by the side of a road, the destruction of a town's historic City Hall building, and the recollection of a cruel wartime decision are equally affecting in Orner's vivid and intimate gaze. The first half of the book concerns the lives of unrelated strangers across the American landscape, and the second introduces two very different Jewish families, one on the East Coast, the other in the Midwest. Yet Orner's real territory is memory, and this book of wide-ranging and innovative stories remains an important and unique contribution to the art of the American short story."
  • "Recueil de nouvelles peuplées de personnages marqués par des accidents de la vie, un meurtre, la représentation d'une pièce de théâtre, des souvenirs de guerre, la mort d'un être cher, etc."
