Our Strangers by Lydia Davis

Product Information

 PRE-ORDER THE NEW COLLECTION FROM LYDIA DAVIS

WINNER OF THE MAN BOOKER INTERNATIONAL PRIZE.

PUBLISHED ON OCTOBER 5TH 2023

'A trailblazer in the world of short-form prose' New Yorker
 
Lydia Davis is a virtuoso at detecting the seemingly casual, inconsequential surprises of daily life and pinning them for inspection.
 
In Our Strangers;
 
conversations are overheard and misheard,
a special delivery letter is mistaken for a rare white butterfly,
toddlers learning to speak identify a ping-pong ball as an egg 
mumbled remarks betray a marriage...

In the glow of Davis's keen noticing, strangers can become like family and family like strangers.

Our Strangers is a fascinating collection that confirms the genius of a writer whose every attention is transformative.
