Description
Award-winning writer Kathryn Gahl brings her careful eye and lyrical detail to the two dozen stories in Yes, No, I Don't Know, a luminous patchwork of Midwestern strivers, lovers, and dreamers in thorny circumstances. A wife finds her husband hanging from a barn beam. A physician receives an unorthodox patient request. A widower opens his wife's dresser drawer and comes undone at the sight of her panties. A teenage boy grapples with reporting his friend's unspeakable act. An inmate tells how to end things. Controlled, tender, and masterful, Gahl weaves despair and hope into a single thread of healing grace.
