Luke (korrick) | 2004 comments Later the Same Day, Grace Paley, 1985, United States, SHORT STORIES

"...As the story titles suggest, Faith's endless confidence in her friends and in the ordinary powers of listening and of becoming a "story hearer" pave the way for radical transformation...Throughout the collection, neighbors learn to listen to each other, husbands and lovers learn to hear women, women who are longtime friends and political allies validate each other's lives, and strangers tell stories that need to be heard..."

(S.S., p. 100)
