註釋Brazen and sharp-witted, Merin Wexler’s linked stories document women and teenagers caught in the pivotal conflicts of their lives. A new mother finds herself inexplicably drawn to the local porn shop, her baby strapped to her chest. A career mom decides to have a second child to keep her nanny. A teenaged babysitter sleeps with the dad to get closer to the mom. The glamorous proprietress of the summerhouse next door takes advantage of her infatuated teenage neighbor to suppress her feelings of estrangement from her indifferent husband. Wickedly funny and unsettling, Save Yourself is a work of startling insight by a gifted young writer.
