Red Car - by Sallie Bingham (Paperback)

About the Book

Wise, subtle stories that travel from Paris to Santa Fe.

Book Synopsis

"[Sallie] Bingham writes with an austere and unerring knowledge of what it is to be human and transgressive."--Paula Fox

"Restrained and wise, these lovely stories unfold like lavender-scented linens, quieting the fretful mind."--Joe Ashby Porter

Forty-year veteran of the novel, noted feminist, and author of over ten books, Sallie Bingham returns with Red Car, a collection written in her signature style--discreet, sly prose circling taboo subjects. Her new offering is about love enjoyed, whether alone or with lovers, sensual or familial, comedic or tragic, often with a wry twist.

Sallie Bingham lives in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
