Until We Have Faces

Stories

In a style reminiscent of John Cheever and Alice Munro, Michael Nye's second collection of stories, Until We Have Faces, contends with transfixing themes: marital and familial estrangement, ways of trespass, the intractable mysteries and frights of modern life, the uncertainty of knowledge and truth, the gulfs between people and the technology we use, the frailty of our economic lives - while underlining throughout the persistency of love. 

His consummate skill, penetrating wit, and unfailing emotional generosity are on full display in this fine new collection.

Memorable stories

Memorable stories very well read. I really enjoyed the futuristic story of the terrorist ex-wife and the novella about the two basketball players, one of whom comes from a troubled home and uses alcohol and drugs.
