About the Book

Whether between parent and child, husband and wife, friends, siblings, or paramours, love is by far the most compelling and fulfilling, but also the most complex and challenging of the roads we negotiate in the long journey through life. The novellas and stories contained within Love on a Small Island are all built upon and revolve around these relationships. In them, Judy Pomeranz presents us with all manner of individuals involved in all manner of relationships doing the best they can to get through the day, and with luck perhaps even figure out how to find happiness and thrive. Tied together only by the common setting of Manhattan and the urban experience that implies, her disparate characters are variously confident, insecure, tough, fragile, bold, timid, tormented, serene, guarded, or open, and occasionally all the above. Like the rest of us, they put one foot in front of the other and hope to reach a place that feels good and right. Also like the rest of us, they rarely quite get there, and when they do it rarely lasts. And yet they persist. Because that's what people do, and that's what life is about. These are people we may or may not admire, and may or may not even like, but they are all people whom we relate to and ultimately find ourselves caring for and about.

Advance praise for "Love on a Small Island:

Judy Pomeranz's sublime New York stories rappel down the shiny pages of previous riffs on the art world, the Hamptons, and so much more. Part Amor Towles, part Hortense Calisher, these are sleekly crafted fictions possessing a droll eye, cheeky dialogue, and a whole lotta heart. The two retro novellas alone will make you a Pomeranz fan.

Richard Peabody, editor, Gargoyle Magazine
