Today a Woman Went Mad in the Supermarket: Stories

Author(s): Hilma Wolitzer

FICTION

In this collection, Hilma Wolitzer invites us inside the private world of domestic bliss, seen mostly through the lens of Paulie and Howard's gloriously ordinary marriage. From hasty weddings to meddlesome neighbours, ex-wives who just won't leave, to sleepless nights spent worrying about unanswered chainmail, Wolitzer captures the tensions, contradictions and unexpected detours of daily life with wit, candour and an acutely observant eye.Including stories first published in agazines in the 1960s and 1970s alongside new writing from Wolitzer, now in her nineties Today a Woman Went Mad in the Supermarket reintroduces a beloved writer to be embraced by a new generation of readers.
