The Long and Short of It
Dealing in divorce, abortion, motherhood, and Chinese concubines, Pamela Painter weaves twenty-five tales concerning topics that generally require a longer format than the short story. Painter's abstractions, however, allude to a denser tale, daring her reader to come inside the story. The stories mostly focus on women, but explore the fragile, inner sides of dozens of carefully drawn characters.
