Birds of America: Stories

A collection of stories containing a range of emotional force and dark humour. It unfolds a series of portraits of the young, the hip, the lost, the unsettled and the unhinged of America.

Another wonderful collection of stories, with Lorrie Moore's unique voice. She is able to show you so many details of someone's world in a few pages, and she makes all the characters so full and realistic that you just can't forget about them. If you want to start reading Moore, Birds of America is the one for you.
