      There are very few writers who can write Dialogue as well as Mary Robison. She was big in the 80's and remains one of the more truly interesting American writers having revived interest with DOA and One on the Way. I reading her in order and this is her second work and not her strongest. It feels as if someone convinced her that given her extraordinary abilities with dialogue she could write a play and that play became a novel. It is 90% dialogue and details the peculiar behavior of a family of eccentrics. Some familiar tropes are here like the ex who still linger. And true to form there isn't really an epiphany. The events are critical and dramatic but as with her short stories that doesn't mean it will be wrapped up. The title which occurs at the end signifies almost nothing, almost a commentary on what is thrown away. Still she is just so good.
