Crazy Season

by Paul Graham

In eleven stories, CRAZY SEASON reveals the tiny fractures in the otherwise stable American lives of lovers, spouses, friends, and strangers. Spanning WWII England to Upstate New York, from the backyards of adolescence to the dark corners of adulthood, these varied tales follow characters confronting the costs of sexual desire and restraint, the haunting of memory, and the limits of gender and understanding. With a mixture of sly humor, deep empathy, and objectivity, Graham creates fiction that bears resemblance to the work of such writers as Andre Dubus, Richard Bausch, and Joyce Carol Oates.
