Summary: "The five stories in John Fulton's The Animal Girl explore the awkwardness of situations in which grief and erotic love collide. Here are people in extremes, struggling mightily, and often failing, to keep it together. These stories approach the often sentimentalized subject of romance with tenderness and insight into the heart-worn perspective of characters who have failed at love in the past. In his prose, Fulton navigates the complexity of both mid-life courtship and adolescent rage with humor and intelligence."--BOOK JACKET.
