This collection contain 4 stories originally published in Alaska Quarterly Review, including "The Non-Combatant," "To Reach This Season (Day of Awe)," "The Story" and "Home Schooling." A glowing review in the New York Times (January 14, 2011) singled out "Home Schooling" as one of the collection's "most luminous" stories.
AQR Author Melinda Moustakis will be recognized by the National Book Foundation as one of the five Under-35 award winners for 2011.

It contains two stories first published in Alaska Quarterly Review: “Us Kids” and “Mr. Fur Face Needs a Girlfriend.” Her stories in AQR were nominated for a Pushcart Prizes.
