Signed Copies
Signed copies of books are a personal touch that remind the reader of the real human being behind the book. The signature (and possibly a little inscription if we are lucky) represents the hundreds of hours and miles of actual and imagined travel that the writer journeyed to make the vision real, the experience real, and the book real. Signed copies are always by their nature in limited supply, but we promise to keep this page constantly changing with these rare treasures.
Who I Was Supposed to Be: Short Stories
Who I Was Supposed to Be: Short Stories
Behind every face in "Who I Was Supposed to Be" is a singular quirk to explore, a peculiarity to celebrate. In Susan Perabo's world, nothing can be taken for granted: here, a retired grocer takes up jewel theft in his twilight years; a data processor squanders her inheritance on one of Princess Diana's gowns; a mugging victim feigns amnesia to win back his wife.
In the tradition of Lorrie Moore, Susan Perabo's slightly off-center lens looks hard at the banal and the bizarre, and at the human condition, where she finds extraordinary magic within the smallest of gestures. Sharply written and overlaid with a mischievous wit, "Who I Was Supposed to Be" is an unforgettable homage to laughter, love, and wonder.
