The Safety Of Objects

The Safety of Objects, A.M. Homes' first collection of short stories, displays the flair for the hilarious, the perverse and the extraordinary that characterizes all of her books.
The stories in The Safety of Objects are both bizarre and believable, very funny but also frightening and sad. A girl's blonde Barbie doll seduces her teenage brother in an intense episode of erotic obsession; a couple go off the rails and smoke crack while their children are staying with their grandmother; and a lawyer seeks revenge on his boss by urinating into his potted plant every evening.
