THANK YOU FOR THE MUSIC

Stories

ISBN 0-06-056453-9 (paperback)

In fourteen original stories, Jane McCafferty illuminates modern life, weaving her love of music throughout the lives and stories of her characters. From two middle-aged strangers who meet in an empty baseball stadium during a rainstorm, to a twenty-three-year-old man who brings his sixty-two-year-old wife home to meet his parents, to a young couple who live next door to an unemployed clown and his wife, these stories are at once unexpected and enthralling.

ONE HEART

A Novel

ISBN 0-06-109757-8 (paperback)

This inspiring debut novel from this multi-award-winning author recounts the lives of two sisters whose experiences often separate them, but whose love for one another is complicated and deepened over a lifetime.

“Told in direct, plain-spoken language, Jane McCafferty's first novel gathers genuine emotional depth.”
