Becky Hagenston’s debut collection of short stories, is the 2009 winner of the Spokane Prize for Short Fiction that Antonya Nelson, author of Nothing Right and Some Fun, calls 'curious, clever, quick, hilarious, and heartbreaking'; Brock Clark, author of An Arsonist’s Guide to Writers’ Homes in New England, says, 'Just when you think you’ve got these characters and their messed-up lives pegged, they do something wonderful, or awful, or both, to utterly surprise you, and often themselves. A wonderful book'; and Janet Peery, author of What the Thunder Said, says, 'With extraordinary wit and understanding and stunning emotional accuracy, not to mention an uncanny ability to track which way the wind blows, Becky Hagenston trains a weather eye on those most unstable of fronts-human beings in their dealings with each other. Smart work from a smart writer.'
