Tightly crafted, beautifully written short stories - By: , 05 Jan 2002
...Rebecca Miller, daughter of playwright Arthur Miller, has crafted seven short stories. Each story deals with a different female protagonist, & each, though different & distinct, is related to the others by the complexity of her character & the honesty of her observations. There is, for example, Greta, a cookbook editor in her late 20's, who only needs to look at her less-than-extraordinary husband's boring, inexpensive shoes to know that she will leave him. Or Bryna, a cleaning woman, living with her kind but spectacularly undynamic husband Milt & Milt's ferociously bitter mother; Bryna's dreams are contained within the made-up media interviews she imagines she's participating in.

Miller's stories are not perfect. But they're damned close & well, well, well worth the read.
