Evans has expertly crafted her stories with a balance that is both convicting and astounding. Though she never lets her characters off the hook, she sketches each with beautiful complexity and compassion. I particularly enjoyed "Boys Go to Jupiter," "Alcatraz," and "Why Won't Women Just Say What They Want."
A sharp and nuanced rendering of the many worlds we inhabit--past, present, and future--and the different ways we experience those worlds based on our race, gender identity, and class.
