A Relative Stranger by Charles Baxter

Without question Charles Baxter, whose ravishing novel The Feast of Love was a National Book Award finalist, is one of our finest contemporary writers. These two books, set in the Michigan landscape that Baxter has made his own, display his unparalleled gift for revealing the unexpected in everyday life. The often-curious connections of relatives and strangers are illuminated in the thirteen exquisite stories of A Relative Stranger. You can't just get a brother off the street, a character says, but indeed he does.
Charles Baxter lives in Minneapolis and teaches at the University of Minnesota.
