Molly Ringwald mines the complexities of modern relationships in
this gripping and nuanced collection of interlinked stories. When
It Happens to You follows a Los Angeles family and their friends
and neighbors while they negotiate the hazardous terrain of
everyday life.
In "The Harvest Moon," a stay-at-home mom grapples with age,
infertility, and an increasingly distant husband. In "Ursa Minor,"
a former children's television star tries to rebuild his life after
being hospitalized for "exhaustion." In "My Olivia," a single
mother finds untapped reserves of strength to protect her
flamboyant six-year-old son, who wishes only to wear dresses and be
called Olivia. And in the devastating title story, a betrayed wife
chronicles her pain and alienation, leading to an eviscerating
denouement.
An unflinching yet poignant examination of the intricacies of
the human heart, When It Happens to You is an auspicious literary
debut.
