BELONGING
Short Stories from Pangyrus

Edited by Virginia Pye and Anne Bernays
What do we sacrifice when we strive to belong? A woman gets thin to make her family notice her. A teenage girl shoplifts with a friend for love and affirmation. Whether it’s an unflinching look at a soldier’s return to a land seared in his memory or a tale of a woman wandering the nighttime streets she’s forgotten, the tender and funny stories of Belonging explore our own hope of ever finding the connections we so desperately want.
