"Like a favorite old mix tape" a short story collection from the author of One Heart " tugs at the heartstrings and illuminates life's pivotal moments" ( Publishers Weekly ). In fourteen original stories, award-winninga Jane McCafferty illuminates modern life while weaving her love of music throughout the lives and stories of her characters. From two middle-aged strangers who meet in an empty baseball stadium during a rainstorm, to a 23-year-old man who brings his 62-year-old wife home to meet his parents, to a young couple who live next door to an unemployed clown and his wife, these stories are at once unexpected and enthralling. "Funny and uplifting." — Booklist
