BREATH AND OTHER STORIES is the first time her short fiction, written over the past two decades, has been collected in one volume. In \"Breath,\" a mother wrestles with how much freedom for her daughter might be too much. In \"Sex Less,\" a lesbian contemplates her waning desire and what impact this might have on her identity. In \"A Whisper in the Veins,\" a man attempts to tell his mother he's been diagnosed with AIDS. In \"News,\" a woman's life is taken over by her preoccupation with the headlines.
