The Families

In these 14 magnificent new stories from a New Zealand master, Vincent O`Sullivan exhibits a shrewd understanding that pierces to the heart of what it means to be human. O`Sullivan can mock, satirize, and laugh, but he also finds dignity in unexpected places. He is interested in the art of living and in the borderland where truth and lies meet, both in life and in fiction itself.
