Binocular Vision won the National Book Critics Circle Award for Fiction. Spanning forty years of writing, moving from tsarist Russia to the coast of Maine, from Jerusalem to Massachusetts, these astonishing stories reveal one of America's greatest modern writers. Across a stunning array of scenes—an unforeseen love affair between adolescent cousins, an elderly couple's decision to shoplift, an old woman's deathbed confession of her mother's affair—Edith Pearlman crafts a timeless and unique sensibility, shot through with wit, lucidity and compassion.
