Available to the reading public for the first time in this collection, the long short story Threads Woven is a masterpiece of dialogue, artistic inspiration, and self confidence: Miriam seeks artistic inspiration in a writing class. Feeling ever more alone, with her husband busy in a career and with a beautiful new running partner, her daughter unavailable and her classmates thirty years younger than she is, Miriam finds communion and inspiration in another drifting soul, in Chinese food, and in an old quilt. Fulfilling your greatest fantasies of having and holding some of Jessica Knausss famous short stories for your very own, this collection also includes the previously published favorites Justine, Job Fair, Calcium-Rich, and Slippers. They all explore some aspect of womens lives in a unique or even weird way, whether its jealousy, career frustration, chemical balance, or unique flexibilities (find them online for free at http://jessicaknauss.blogspot.com/p/good-reading-jessica-knausss-famous_24.html). The never-before-seen romantic comedy/revenge fantasy Club Love and frustration/envy allegory Green Hot round out the collection on a note of righteous rage. Note: its important that your sense of humor veer toward male-bashing in order to appreciate the last two stories and Justine. The author does not condone hatred of the male gender as a group, but has set this collection apart as a celebration of womens creativity, beauty, and power.
