Faber & Faber

Self-Help: Lorrie Moore

Synopsis:

This absorbing, ironic, bitter-sweet collection of nine stories marked Lorrie Moore's talented debut. Sharp, cruel and funny, the stories are presented as a highly idiosyncratic guide to female existence: 'How to be an Other Woman', 'How to Talk to Your Mother (Notes)', 'How to Become a Writer', 'The Kid's Guide to Divorce'.

'A remarkable debut by an original and gifted writer. Lorrie Moore's wry, poetic stories of love and loss make me want to laugh and cry at the same time.' Alison Lurie
