Collection
of 11 short stories, including "Pleasure Boating in Lituya Bay" and
"Sans Farine.".
Abundant, chameleonic, witty and wise, Jim Shepard's short stories in
this collection are set in Australia, Chernobyl, and Britannia during
the Roman Empire. He slips into voices and characters with the ease of
a world-class actor let loose in a costume room.
Like You'd Understand, Anyway
was a finalist for the 2007 National Book Award.
