Dancing After Hours: Stories by Andre Dubus

4.0

I'd give it 4.5 stars if I could. It's a short story collection, so obviously not everything is going to land, but most of the stories do. The last story, from the book gets its title, would be sickeningly sentimental in the hands of most other writers, but Dubus makes it work. The story of Ted and LuAnn is the best fictional portrayal of postconciliar period Catholicism I've ever read this side of "Ladybird".
