These 13 short stories by well-known contemporary writers evoke a wide range of women's experiences and feelings. Writers such as Alice Munro, Ann Beattie, Elizabeth Tallent, and Mavis Gallant survey the rich complexity and frequent contradictions of contemporary life. They focus on weddings, funerals, childbearing, visits by relatives, friendships, and memories. In Susan Minot's story "The Navigator," a young girl tells of her family's struggle against her father's alcoholism. Louise Erdrich's "The Beet Queen" portrays a single parent's sudden abandonment of her children for a stunt flyer. Bobbie Ann Mason's "Blue Country" presents the story of a woman who, while attending the wedding of a friend, receives news of her grandmother's long-expected death. ISBN 0-915308-78-9 (pbk.): $7.50

Despite overwhelming evidence that it no longer exists, we continue to believe in the myth of the Ozzie and Harriet family: working father, at-home mother, two bright kids. We see this pervasive image on TV, in movies, in advertising. Statistics and good sense, however, tell us that family is now defined in many ways. More than half of American households will be, at one time or another, single-parent families. Learning how to accommodate half brothers and sisters, second and third stepmothers, and noncustodial parents and former step-parents is a task faced by many of today's children and adults. Gay and/or lesbian parents are common. Grandparents assume parental roles, often for teenaged parents. Many people abandon their natural families to form families among friends. There are no guides to the subtleties of the New Family, and so The Graywolf Annual Eight: The New Family gathers remarkable short stories-- by established and new authors-- each of which in some manner reflects, elucidates, or amplifies some of this new reality. Together, they celebrate our much broader understanding of what a family can be.

The issue of cultural literacy has been the subject of intense debate in the past two years. Several bestselling books about the deficiencies of our educational system as well as changes in basic curriculum at more than one major university have contributed to the fervor of this debate. Fueling the national controversy is the question of what body of knowledge constitutes cultural literacy. While many argue for a return to a "back to basics" curriculum, equally energetic voices call for a revised curriculum, one which embraces both traditional western classics and the classics of non-European cultures, among them African, Asian, and Latin American. This volume brings together thirteen essays which suggest the range of knowledge truly literate individuals need to possess. Essays by such writers as James Baldwin, Carlos Fuentes, Michelle Cliff, Paula Gunn Allen, Ishmael Reed, and Wendell Berry enlarge our perspective to include a variety of voices and heritages which contribute to the vibrant culture of the United States. Also included is a beginning list of names, places, dates, and concepts which are part and parcel of a multi-cultural fabric.
