More of This World or Maybe Another

by Johnson, Barb

Paperback - English

More of This World or Maybe Another is a collection of award-winning short fiction about four outsiders whose unruly lives intersect on the back streets of New Orleans from writer Barb Johnson. Funny and haunting by turns, Johnson's unforgettable characters are driven by something fragile and irresistible, a sputtering drive to love and be loved, in these "stunning stories . . . the kind that reveal, enlarge, and make living seem worth the trouble." (Dorothy Allison)
