A multiple award winner, Hempel is beloved and highly regarded among writers, reviewers, and readers of contemporary fiction. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThese fifteen exquisitely honed stories reveal Hempel at her most compassionate and spirited, as she introduces characters, lonely and adrift, searching for connection. In \"A Full-Service Shelter,\" a volunteer at a dog shelter tirelessly, devotedly cares for dogs on a list to be euthanized. In \"Greed,\" a spurned wife examines her husband's affair with a glamorous, older married woman. And in \"Cloudland,\" the longest story in the collection, a woman reckons with the choice she made as a teenager to give up her newborn infant. Quietly dazzling, these stories are replete with moments of revelation and transcendence and with Hempel's singular, startling, inimitable sentences. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eRavishing, heartbreaking, and powerfully concise, \u003ci\u003eSing to It\u003c\/i\u003e is an \"exquisite collection\" (\u003ci\u003eThe Wall Street Journal\u003c\/i\u003e) and a \"quiet masterpiece by a true American original\" (NPR).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-11926449\"\u003eAmy Hempel\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Scribner Book Company\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/12\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 160\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.34lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.90h x 5.10w x 0.60d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781982109127\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1982109122\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-FIC\"\u003eFiction\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-FIC029000\"\u003eShort Stories (single author)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-FIC\"\u003eFiction\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-FIC019000\"\u003eLiterary\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Scribner Book Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42703845720301,"sku":"9781982109127","price":17.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_4f4c03c2-6880-454b-a9a4-1f5108f69029.jpg?v=1649989740","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/sing-to-it-stories-9781982109127","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
