About this item
From the critically acclaimed author of If The Ice Had Held, The Seven Stages of Anger and Other Stories, and The Pull of It, comes What If We Were Somewhere Else.
"Wendy J. Fox delivers a realistic, emotionally driven set of interlinked stories. Relatable, affecting, and at times absurd, this collection is for anyone who has felt frustrated at work." - Booklist Starred Review
"Fox's prose is laced with tenderness, exploring lives measured in acceptance, kindness and connection. Even while moving insightfully through the more alienating facets of office culture — networking parties, breakroom concerns — Fox invests most of all in what makes us people over workers: those closely held moments pregnant with change, when a new life could break open if we just reach for the person next to us." - New York Times
What If We Were Somewhere Else is a tragicomic new collection of linked short stories that follows the characters from strip clubs to booze cruises, through failing marriages and bad management, and even on a journey to the moon.
"In this connected collection of stories, Wendy J. Fox introduces us to an engaging medley of office coworkers, as well as their families, friends, and lovers. Fox's memorable narrations, ranging from eccentric to evocative, side-splitting to shocking, had me smiling, pondering, and turning the pages for more." - Cynthia Swanson, New York Times bestselling author of The Bookseller and The Glass Forest
