A New York Times Book Review Editors' Choice

All the characters in Evgenia Citkowitz's first collection of short fiction are connected by the quest for identity--some are poised at crossroads, while others teeter on the edge of a moral precipice. In Leavers' Events, a teenage girl awaits exam results and has a sexual encounter with a teacher that she hopes will define her. In Sunday's Child, a middle-aged actress evicts a homeless woman from her garden, precipitating a crisis of conscience. And in the title novella, Ether, a blocked writer plagiarizes his own life with devastating consequences.

Unexpected and startlingly original, Citkowitz depicts her characters with a mordant humor and tenderness that never diminishes their complexity.
