Reasons to Live by Amy Hempel

Hempel's now-classic collection of short fiction is peopled by complex characters who have discovered that their safety nets are not dependable and who must now learn to balance on the threads of wit, irony, and spirit.

Amy Hempel is the coeditor of Unleashed and the author of Sing to It, The Dog of the Marriage, Tumble Home, At the Gates of the Wild Realm, and Reasons to Live. Her pieces have appeared in publications such as Harper's, Vanity Fair, GQ, Tin House, The Harvard Review, and The Quarterly, and have been anthologized in collections such as Best American Short Stories and The Best Nonrequired Reading. She teaches in Bennington College's Graduate Writing Department and at Stony Brook Southampton. She resides in the vicinity of New York City.
