ANGELA PNEUMAN reading & booksigning for Home Remedies Thursday, February 22 at 7:00 pm at The Booksmith (1644 Haight Street in San Francisco)
Tonsillectomies should not be performed at home, cucumbers do not make good stand-ins, and golf clubs are not for hitting your mother. Recent Stegner Fellow Angela Pneuman renders these unsettling truths with compassionate insight in her new book, Home Remedies. This startling debut short story collection is a clear-eyed look at religious faith and family ties – tinged with Southern gothic.
Angela Pneuman is a recent Stegner Fellow in fiction at Stanford University. Stories from Home Remedies have appeared in The Best American Short Stories , Ploughshares , Iowa Review , Glimmer Train , and elsewhere. She lives in Albany, New York.
