Grace Paley's superb and frankly sexual stories appeared in the 1950s before women's liberation had come to nettle the public mind. These unforgettable stories about men in the thick of life and women, men and the love-hate relationships between them show Paley's imaginative daring, vision and talent. (back cover copy)

Work Description
Grace Paley explores the "little disturbances" that lie behind our everyday lives. Whether writing about sexy little girls, loving and bickering couples, angry suburbanites, frustrated job-seekers, or Jewish children performing a Christmas play, she captures the loneliness, poignancy, and humor of human experience with matchless style.
