A multiple award winner, Hempel is beloved and highly regarded among writers, reviewers, and readers of contemporary fiction.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThese fifteen exquisitely honed stories reveal Hempel at her most compassionate and spirited, as she introduces characters, lonely and adrift, searching for connection. In “A Full-Service Shelter,” a volunteer at a dog shelter tirelessly, devotedly cares for dogs on a list to be euthanized. In “Greed,” a spurned wife examines her husband’s affair with a glamorous, older married woman. And in “Cloudland,” the longest story in the collection, a woman reckons with the choice she made as a teenager to give up her newborn infant. Quietly dazzling, these stories are replete with moments of revelation and transcendence and with Hempel’s singular, startling, inimitable sentences.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eRavishing, heartbreaking, and powerfully concise, \u003ci\u003eSing to It\u003c\/i\u003e is an “exquisite collection” (\u003ci\u003eThe Wall Street Journal\u003c\/i\u003e) and a “quiet masterpiece by a true American original” (NPR).","brand":"Simon \u0026 Schuster Audio","offers":[{"title":"Audiobook","offer_id":49347146285360,"sku":"BDcwna","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Audio CD","offer_id":49347146318128,"sku":"10cwna","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0879\/2784\/9264\/files\/cwna-Square-cover.jpg?v=1773689365","url":"https:\/\/downpour.com\/products\/book-cwna","provider":"Downpour","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
