When I was preparing to teach an intro to Creative Writing class last year, I went to the library to check out Amy Bloom’s Come to Me, which I love. I ended up also getting Dagoberto Gilb’s Woodcuts of Women, a collection of 10 stories and woodcuts. I’m just getting around to reading it now. His characters love women and they love love.

Her stories have appeared in Tin House, Jane magazine, Fence, The Cincinnati Review, the 2004 Pushcart Prize anthology, and other journals.
