Beschreibung
Winner of the 2024 Kellman Prize for Immigrant Literature. With the puckish humor of Fran Lebowitz and the keen inventiveness of Lydia Davis, Sofi Stambo’s debut collection leans into curiosity, family, and the old-world bonds that draw her motley characters together. A nervous dog takes flight over Manhattan. A woman soothes her neighbors with multilingual telepathy. A purse snatcher inherits her victim’s scribbled lists—and her worries. In these stories, immigrants to New York City work their way through absurd situations into even messier ones, communing with their fellow diners, officemates, and the local cemetery geese, and greeting chaos with a grin. From Bulgaria to America, People Who Live Alone Talk Too Much. pulls at the threads of daily life, unwinding the ordinary into scenes of hilarity, introspection, and surprising connection.
