Because They Wanted To: Stories
Mary GaitskillA New York Times Notable Book
A man tells a story to a woman sitting beside him on a plane, little suspecting what it reveals about his capacity for cruelty & contempt. A callow runaway girl is stranded in a strange city with another woman’s fractiously needy children. An uncomprehending father helplessly lashes out at the daughter he both loves & resents. In these raw, startling, & incandescently lovely stories, the author of Veronica yields twelve indelible portraits of people struggling with the disparity between what they want & what they know.
Because They Wanted To is further evidence that Gaitskill is one of the fiercest, funniest, & most subversively compassionate writers at work today.
