|
One of the finest literary writers of the past decade, Ruthann Robson showcases her talent and range in The Struggle for Happiness. Linked thematically, the stories in this collection explore the strivings -- for love, for belonging, for home, and for happiness -- of her exquisitely drawn characters. Ranging in tone from utopian visions to stark realism and populated by a unique collection of women -- from the guitarist whose supposedly dead lover turns up at one of her concerts, to the professor who has lost her ability to trust anything; from the psychic at a popular gay resort, to the critic and would-be writer -- the pieces in The Struggle for Happiness are delicate, intricate, and powerful. Sure to delight and astonish, this is Robson at her finest.
