Americans in Paradise

With lean prose and offbeat humor, this refreshing collection of interrelated stories depicts ordinary individuals' reactions to paradisical states of mind. Echoing Dubliners, Nine Stories and The Master and Margarita, Americans in Paradise's characters adjust to everyday life after something extraordinary dissolves their routines. Navigating the gap between ironic amusement and sublime insight, each story serves as a reminder of such moments, like bread crumbs retracing the path to an epiphany.
