Hunger: A Novella and Stories

<p>“Spare and haunting tales that ask ordinary questions about that extraordinary emotion: love.”—<em>Chicago Tribune</em></p><br />The novella and five stories that make up this collection reveal the lives of immigrant families haunted by lost loves: a ghost seduces a young girl into a flooded river; a mother commands a daughter to avenge her father’s death; and in the title novella, a woman speaks from beyond the grave about her tragic marriage to an exiled musician whose own disappointments nearly destroyed their two daughters.
