Notes

Description
"Noy Holland is one of America's great writers, and each of her previous collections has been greeted with wide acclaim. Critics have praised her exquisite prose, her exuberant characters, and the exhilarating tension of her tales. Following the wonderful reception of her first novel, Bird, which Counterpoint published last year, we are proud to offer a gathering of 48 stories, 17 from her previous collections and 25 never before published in book form"--,Provided by publisher.
Description
"None of the stories in the collection are formulaic, and none of them are easy. Rather, they're sneaky, enigmatic, revealing themselves to the reader at unexpected times, sometimes long after the last word has been read...I Was Trying to Describe What It Feels Like is a strong collection, and Holland's writing is by turns hallucinatory, bizarre, and maddening in the best possible way. " -NPR
