Love, in its many varieties and complexities, weaves through this collection by Amy Bloom, the New York Times bestselling author of Away. Blooms astonishing and astute new work of connected testimonies illuminates the mysteries of passion, family, and camaraderie. Propelled by Blooms dazzling prose, unmistakable speech, and large wit, Where in fact the God of Love Hangs Out can take us to the margins and the centers of real peoples lives, checking out the changes that love and reduction create. A young woman is haunted by her roommates murder; a guy and his daughter-in-law confess their sins in the unlikeliest of places. In a single quartet of interlocking testimonies, two middle-aged friends, committed to others, find themselves surprisingly attracted to each other, risking all while never underestimating the price. In another connected set of testimonies, we follow mother and son for thirty years as their small and uncertain family becomes an irresistible tribe. Insightful, sensuous, and heartbreaking, these testimonies of passion and disappointment, life and fatality, capture deep real human truths. As The New Yorker has said, Amy Bloom gets more so this means into individual phrases than most creators manage in whole books.
