A young woman forms her own idea of feminine sexuality while skinny-dipping with her best friend’s mother during a thunderstorm. A naive bride returns to her beloved Ontario farm country and, after an encounter with a young female beekeeper, suddenly sees her husband in a sobering new light. A middle-aged woman facing the devastating end of a friendship as well as her last chance at childbirth, flees North only to be confronted with the complexities of life in the Yukon.

“I admire Katie Zdybel’s incisive, pared-down prose, her insights into womanhood, family, and friendships.”
—Joyce Carol Oates
“This is the best collection of domestic short fiction, each phrase so aptly tuned to each emotion, that I have read since Alice Munro’s Too Much Happiness.”
—Janet Somerville, author of Yours, for Probably Always: Martha Gellhorn’s Letters of Love and War 1930–1949
"I am absolutely glued to the book, and will be sorry when it ends. This is a book I picked up and couldn't put down until the very end, wanting to stay in those worlds which are so exquisitely woven."
