Lorrie Moore: COLLECTED STORIES OF LORRIE MOORE W3

Lorrie Moore's first collection of short stories, Self-Help, was published in 1985 when she was twenty-seven years old. This volume of intimate, funny, melancholic stories about lovers, loneliness and never quite belonging was hailed an instant classic and established her reputation as a writer of international distinction. Collected here for the first time are the stories from Self-Help, Like Life, Birds of America, and those from Anagrams, along with three new stories in which Moore turns her attentions to life’s middle years.
