Some of Us Have to Get Up in the Morning

From the two-time winner of the Goodman Short Story Award and nominee for the Pushcart Prize, this collection of short stories is written with a relentless honesty and an unusually focused and knowing insight into the lives of ordinary people, each story mastering those small, puzzling, and inconclusive moments of human contact that we all experience. 'With wit, nerve, and a disarming depth of feeling, 'Some of Us Have to Get Up in the Morning' prowls through the imagination like some dark shining animal. A fierce debut' -Paul Lisicky
