In this arresting debut collection of short stories, Mary Jones uses her distinctive, exacting voice to examine the painful ways we say goodbye. With satisfying depth and mouth-dropping details, these stories will push you out of your comfort zone and ignite intense emotions surrounding love and loss.
Grief unites us all, as Mary¿s stories illustrate and exhume. A woman camps out on the porch of an ex-lover who has barricaded himself inside his house, a fatherless preteen girl gets caught shoplifting and then finds herself in grave danger, a widow moves back to her hometown and befriends a college student, a Los Angeles real estate agent falls for a woman who helps him detach from years of dramatic plastic surgery, a man hires a professional mourner to ensure his wife¿s funeral is a success.
The stories gathered in this collection are dark, stunning, original, and beautifully rendered. The Goodbye Process will pack a punch, just the way grief does¿knocking us off our feet.
