What My Last Man Did

Following generations of one family through nearly a century, Andrea Lewis’s short stories explore what it means to cope with loss and how the difficult decisions of our parents and grandparents reverberate into the present, and how the impact of our own decisions travels on into the future. The people in these ten vivid stories face tragedy and real-world catastrophic events—war, hurricanes, the Great Depression, prejudice and race laws—in their pursuit of love, family, and belonging.
