Synopsis
In this brilliant collection, Tessa Hadley showcases beautifully her formidable talent for writing domestic fiction that rises about the genre to become literary art. "Filled with exquisitely calibrated gradations and expressions of class, conducted with symphonic intensity and complexity.... Extraordinarily well-made."--New York Times Book Review Married Love is a masterful collection of short fiction from one of today's most accomplished storytellers. These tales showcase the qualities for which Tessa Hadley has long been praised: her humor, warmth, and psychological acuity; her powerful, precise, and emotionally dense prose; her unflinching examinations of family relationships. Here are stories that range widely across generations and classes, exploring the private and public lives of unforgettable characters: a young girl who haunts the edges of her parents' party; a wife released by the sudden death of her film-director husband; an eighteen-year-old who insists on marrying her music professor, only to find herself shut out from his secrets. Hadley evokes worlds that expand in the imagination far beyond the pages, capturing domestic dramas, generational sagas, wrenching love affairs and epiphanies, and distilling them to remarkable effect., "A supremely perceptive writer of formidable skill and intelligence," ( New York Times Book Review ), Tessa Hadley is the author of four critically acclaimed novels, including The London Train , a New York Times Notable Book. A regular contributor to The New Yorker , Hadley returns to the short story form in this brilliant collection, her first since the celebrated Sunstroke and Other Stories .
