Other Women: And Other Stories -- Nicola Maye Goldberg, Paperback

A slyly subversive bildungsroman about misplaced love, by the author of the lauded novel Nothing Can Hurt You

After dropping out of college, a young woman wanders through New York both invisible and vulnerable, studying the city's strong magic and longing for a man she knows will never love her back. Salvation appears to arrive when Charlotte Herzfeld, the young wife of a successful businessman, hires her as a live-in nanny to accompany the family on a trip to Berlin. As the Herzfelds begin to crack under the weight of their secrets, she finds herself in a more precarious position than ever before.

Reflective yet propulsive, and told in a voice both ingenuous and insightful, Other Women is a timeless and all-too-relatable tale of unwise decisions and unfortunate fixations.

This volume includes three new short stories and an introduction from Megan Nolan.
