husbands, lovers and other interesting stories

I enjoyed reading this book. It is a book containing short stories dealing with husbands and wives or girlfriends and their lovers. Be warned some of the stories are very sexual. Some of the stories are humorous others are sad. The story titled, The Broken Children reminded me of a true story that happened in Yellowstone National Park after we came back in the year 2000. The story was so moving to me that I cut out the article and saved it. It is regarding three kids that get burned at the park by jumping into a steaming pool. The story made me wonder how the two surviving boys are doing, since the girl died from the accident. I remember the 2 boys were from Utah where the author is from. The author's stories really moved me. I thought the author wrote very well, and look forward to reading other short stories or maybe a novel by her in the future.
