“A sustained shot of brilliance” (Boston Globe)—ten globetrotting stories exploring the complex relationships between men and women. A Best Book/Short Story Collection of the Year: O, The Oprah Magazine, Financial Times, Esquire, Lit Hub, Bustle, Electric Literature, Library Journal New York Times Editors’ Choice Nicole Krauss plunges fearlessly into the struggle to understand men and women and the tensions that have existed in all relationships from the beginning of time. Set in our contemporary moment and moving across the globe from Switzerland, Japan, and New York City to Tel Aviv, Los Angeles, and an unnamed country in South America, the stories in To Be a Man feature men as fathers, lovers, friends, children, seducers, and even a lost husband who may never have been a husband at all. The way these stories mirror one another and resonate is beautiful, with a balance so finely tuned that the book almost feels like a novel. Echoes ring through stages of life: aging parents and newborn babies; young women’s coming-of-age and the newfound, somewhat bewildering sexual power that accompanies it; generational gaps and unexpected deliveries of strange new leases on life; mystery and wonder at a life lived or a future waiting to unfold. With a fierce, unwavering light To Be a Man illuminates the forces driving human existence: sex, power, violence, passion, self-discovery, aging. Profound, poignant, and brilliant, Krauss’s stories, at once startling and deeply moving, are always revealing of all-too-human weakness and strength. “Superb. . . . Krauss’s depictions of the nuances of sex and love, intimacy and dependence, call to mind the work of Natalia Ginzburg. . . . Krauss’s stories capture characters at moments in their lives when they’re hungry for experience and open to possibilities, and that openness extends to the stories themselves: narratives too urgent and alive for neat plotlines, simplistic resolutions or easy answers.” —Molly Antopol, New York Times Book Review ”From a contemporary master, an astounding collection of ten globetrotting stories, each one a powerful dissection of the thorny connections between men and women. . . . Each story is masterfully crafted and deeply contemplative, barreling toward a shimmering, inevitable conclusion, proving once again that Krauss is one of our most formidable talents in fiction.” —Esquire
