Produktbeschreibung

An electric collection of new short stories from the inimitable, bestselling writer of Talk to Me and Outside Looking In

In the title story of Walk Between the Raindrops, a woman sits down next to a man at a bar and claims she has ESP. In Thirteen Days, passengers on a cruise line are quarantined, to horrifying and hilarious effect. And Hyena begins simply: That was the day the hyena came for him, and never mind that there were no hyenas in the South of France, and especially not in Pont-Saint-Espritit was there and it came for him.

A virtuoso of the short form, T.C. Boyle returns with an inventive, uproarious, and masterfully told collection of short stories characterized by biting satire, resonant wit, and a boundless, irrepressible imagination.
