FINALIST FOR THE FRANK O'CONNOR SHORT STORY AWARD
NOW WITH AN ADDITIONAL STORY.
Heralding the arrival of a stunning new voice in American fiction, If I Loved You, I Would Tell You This takes readers into the minds and hearts of people navigating the unsettling transitions that life presents to us all: A father struggles to forge an independent identity as his blind daughter prepares for college. A mother comes to terms with her adult daughter's infidelity. An artist mourns the end of a romance while painting the portrait of a dying man. Brilliant, hopeful, and fearlessly honest, If I Loved You, I Would Tell You This illuminates the truths of human relationships, truths we come to recognize in these characters and in ourselves.
BONUS: This edition includes an excerpt from Robin Black's Life Drawing.
Look for the If I Loved You, I Would Tell You This discussion guide inside.
Praise for If I Loved You, I Would Tell You This
"I want to shout about how just when you thought no one could write a story with any tinge of freshness let alone originality about childhood. . . about marriage . . . about old age, Black has done it. . . . Black delivers real emotion, the kind that gives you pause. . . . Will Robin Black win [the Pen/Hemingway Prize] for this book? If I were a judge, she would."-Alan Cheuse, Chicago Tribune
"Pitch-perfect . . . so deft, so understated, and so compelling that you have to slow down to savor each vignette. . . . Fans of Mary Gaitskill, Amy Bloom, and Miranda July will feel like they've found gold in a river when they discover Robin Black. . . . [A] writer to watch."-O: The Oprah Magazine
"Each story reads like a mini-novel . . . worlds are contained in a single page. And the writing . . . oh, the writing . . . There's no narrative cohesion, no point. Rather, If I Loved You is a 'Fantastic Voyage' into the bloodstream of the human species. . . . Maybe it's midlife maturity, maybe it's raw talent, but If I Loved You leaves you longing for more."-San Francisco Chronicle
"Incisive . . . peopled with characters so fully imagined you'll feel they're in the room."-People
"Exquisitely distilled tales of loss and reckoning . . . [Black] evokes a Sparkian blend of skepticism and grace."-Vogue
