Praised by Pam Houston, Kirsten Sundberg Lunstrum's finely-crafted story collection marks the literary debut of a writer of uncommon grace and power. Pam Houston applauds: "Kirsten Lunstrum's stories are gem stones, multi-faceted, highly polished, more and more complicated the closer you look." Each finely tuned story in this remarkable debut collection captures a pivotal moment in the life of a character trying to reconcile past expectations with present, usually unplanned, developments. In the title story, a woman who decided she really should be French visits her married daughter, who once again becomes tangled in a web of lies and disapprovals. In other stories, nursing students in Alaska, a child violin virtuoso, an orchid exhibition, and a picnic with the mysterious Aunt Vivian are the springboards for the author's piercing explorations. Bringing to mind the work of Elizabeth Bishop and Alice Munro, Kirsten Sundberg Lunstrum's stories form a sophisticated and graceful collection.
