About This Book

From a New York Times bestselling author ("One of our wisest storytellers"), a story collection that is funny and tragic in equal measure, about crimes large and small (Rebecca Makkai, author of The Great Believers).

Beloved author Jill McCorkle offers an intimate look at the moments when a person's life changes forever. A woman uses her hearing impairment as a way to guard herself from her husband's commentary. A telephone lineman strains to communicate with his family even as he feels pushed aside in a digital world. And a young couple buys a confessional booth for fun, only to discover the cost of honesty. 

Moving and unforgettable, the stories in Old Crimes capture moments of great intensity, longing, and affection.
