Description (in English)
In many of these stories, which range in length from several words to over 20 pages, Davis approaches her subject - be it a situation, an emotion, a state of bring - with almost scientific interest. Their titles reflect this: The Fish, The Mouse, Mothers, What an Old Woman Will Wear, Lost Things. These are meticulous dissections, intricate descriptions of, say, what it means to be right, or of betrayal, or the relationship of a mother and daughter. But somehow she evokes more, she pulls the reader into the stories - and they are stories - and her endings, whether it be after one paragraph or many pages, are breathtaking.
