Reviews
" Other People We Married is a revelation." -Lorrie Moore, author of Birds of America and A Gate at the Stairs "Emma Straub is worthy of our adoration. These stories are wise, surprising, hilarious, and unforgettable." -Karen Russell, author of St. Lucy's Home for Girls Raised by Wolves and Swamplandia! "Emma Straub is a wry, witty, incisively observant writer." -Dan Chaon, author of Await Your Reply "Emma Straub's stories mean that there are fewer lonely people in the world; they are the best kind of company. I'm giddy about their very existence, the way you get giddy when you meet someone you'd like to know for a long, long time. I look forward to knowing Emma Straub's fiction for a long, long time." -Thisbe Nissen, author of The Good People of New York and Osprey Island "Razor sharp and tenderhearted, funny and wrenching. Emma Straub's stories take place in all the messy, fascinating, uncanny corners of contemporary relationships." -Kelly Link, author of Stranger Things Happen and Magic for Beginners "Emma Straub has such a graceful, brittle, subversive voice that it takes a moment after you surface from her stories, drugged with pleasure and ringing with sharp insight, to realize how deeply she loves and understands humanity. Other People We Married is a terrific collection of stories, and Emma Straub is a joyous marvel of a writer." -Lauren Groff, author of The Monsters of Templeton and Delicate Edible Birds "The smarts and humor of a Lorrie Moore or a Laurie Colwin or a Laurie Anderson-any number of Lauries." -Kevin Brockmeier, author of The Brief History of the Dead , for the Oxford American, " Other People We Married is a revelation." --Lorrie Moore, author of Birds of America and A Gate at the Stairs "Emma Straub is worthy of our adoration.

Synopsis
The beloved debut story collection from the New York Times -bestselling author of Modern Lovers and The Vacationers. In Other People We Married , Straub creates characters as recognizable as a best friend, and follows them through moments of triumph and transformation with wit, vulnerability, and dazzling insight.

Two sisters struggle with old assumptions about each other as they stumble to build a new relationship in "A Map of Modern Palm Springs." In "Puttanesca," two widows move tentatively forward, still surrounded by ghosts and disappointments from the past. These twelve stories, filled with sharp humor, emotional acuity, and joyful language, announce the arrival of a major new talent., The beloved story collection from the New York Times -bestselling author of The Vacationers, All Adults Here and This Time Tomorrow In Other People We Married , Straub creates characters as recognizable as a best friend, and follows them through moments of triumph and transformation with wit, vulnerability, and dazzling insight.
