The Graywolf Annual Two: Short Stories by WomenThirteen stories by some of today's finest writers are presented in this second Graywolf Annual, which evokes the wide and varied range of contemporary women's experience. In Susan Minot's story, "The Navigator," a young girl tells of her family's painful struggle against her father's alcoholism. Louise Erdrich portrays a woman's plight as a single parent, her sudden abandonment of her children for a stunt flyer, and the children's subsequent journey toward separate homes. "Blue Country" by Bobbie Ann Mason presents a woman who, while attending the wedding of an old friend, receives news of her grandmother's long-awaited death. Stories by Anne Beattie, Laurie Colwin, Elizabeth Tallent, Alice Adams, and others explore the rich complexity and the frequent contradictions of contemporary life.
