Where the Light Falls: Selected Stories of Nancy Hale

Lauren Groff has selected twenty-five of Nancy Hale''s best stories in the first career-spanning edition of her work. The stories seem ahead of their time in their depiction of women - sometimes fragile, possibly wicked, often remarkable in their apparent ordinariness; from an adolescent girl driven into delirium over her burgeoning sexuality in Midsummer, to a twenty-something New Yorker experiencing culture shock on a visit to a friend s house in Virginia in That Woman. Haunting, vivid, and subversive in the best sense, Where the Light Falls is nothing less than a major literary rediscovery.
