The End of the Story by Lydia Davis
A woman attemps to piece together the fragments of a past, unresolved relationship. With compassion, wit and what appears to be candour, she seeks to reveal herself and her past. But we begin to suspect that given the vagaries of memory, any tale retrieved from the past must be a fiction.
?No contemporary writer has so bravely explored solitude, boredom, piques and discontent in the midst of desire? Village Voice ?This breathtakingly elegant and unsentimental first novel is about passion, regret, and memory: about the psychology of the spot where recollection and loss intersect? Details ?Davis has written a brilliant essay in the form of a novel? The New Yorker
