“Witty and utterly enchanting.”

Vendela Vida, author of We Run the Tides


Longlisted for the Patterson/Bookshop.org Prize

A daughter witnesses her mother grow angels' wings. A mistress begins writing letters to her lover's wife. Thanks to a genealogy test, a middle-aged woman meets a sister she has never known, and they're very…different.

For lovers of Catherine Newman, Lorrie Moore, and Ottessa Moshfegh comes a debut collection of fourteen insightful, witty, and often laugh-out-loud stories.

My Mother's Boyfriends is populated by angels, earthquakes, sibling complexity, love affairs gone bad, and children left to figure it out on their own. Woven throughout is an abiding sympathy for the mess-ups, bad choices, and missteps that humans make, despite their best intentions.
