Today Is Not Your Day

With her fourth collection, acclaimed short story writer Marian Thurm brings her darkly comic sense of humor to a memorable set of new charactersâ€”every one of whom is brought to vivid life under her sharply observant but always compassionate gaze. A divorcÃ©e is hit on by her philandering ex whose new wife is stricken with cancer. An untimely shattered knee complicates a manâ€™s decision to dump his fiancÃ©e. A grieving widow is burdened by her daughterâ€™s relationship troubles. A teenaged cancer survivor convinces her friends to go on a quest in search of her older crush. A Jewish man is shocked by his Catholic girlfriendâ€™s reaction to visiting Auschwitz. Today is Not Your Day is Thurm at her best, capturing those breathtaking moments where life upends but also becomes painfully clear.
