Because They Wanted To: Stories by Mary Gaitskill

FIRST EDITION • FIRST PRINTING [1997] SIMON & SCHUSTER

Hardcover with dust jacket in excellent condition.  

Beautiful near mint copy with only trace wear.  Dust jacket now housed in a new archival quality brodart jacket protector.  


Mary Gaitskill's coolly compelling, quietly devastating stories explore the messy complexities of relationships between lovers, families, and friends. An unsettling encounter on a plane; a tentative affair between an older woman and a younger man; the chasm between a father and his daughter: each expresses our longing or, and our fear of, human connection.
