Marta and Hector have been married for a long time. He has always taken care of her, and she has always done everything she can to be a good wife. But now, something is changing. Small things seem off: a flash of movement in the corner of Marta’s eye, elapsed moments that she can’t recall, visions of a blonde girl in the darkness that only she can see. As these visions persist and her reality grows more disjointed, it’s unclear if the danger lies in the world around her, or in Marta herself.
By turns mythic and realistic, farcical and tragic, ironic and moving, T. C. Boyle’s stories have mapped a wide range of human emotions. The 58 stories in this new volume, written over the last 18 years, reflect his maturing themes. Along with the satires and tall tales that established his reputation, readers will find stories speaking to contemporary social issues, from air rage to abortion doctors, and character-driven tales of quiet power and passion.
