Lauren Groff’s character studies are expertly crafted
Lauren Groff's short story collection "Brawler" showcases expertly crafted character studies examining loss, possibility, and fantasy. Stories like the opening piece, told through nested narration about a mother's violent childhood, and "Beneath the Shadow and the Soul," featuring a postmaster's late-life romance, reveal how ordinary lives unfold across decades. Groff connects personal desire to larger existential questions with sly humor.
