Story
Drei Generationen von Frauen leben vom Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts bis zur Weltwirtschaftskrise auf San Miguel, einer kargen, einsamen Insel vor der kalifornischen Küste. Marantha Waters entbehrt dort alles, was sie sich vom Leben gewünscht hat, und ihre schöne, lebenshungrige Tochter sucht so rasch wie möglich zu entfliehen. Für Elise Lester jedoch, die spät ihre erste und einzige Liebe geheiratet hat, wird der Ort für viele Jahre zum Paradies. Doch die Idylle wird bedroht...

Story
This short story from Wild Child was originally published in A Public Space. Reeling from his second divorce, Hunter is taken out on a party boat by his old college roommate, Damian. Looking forward to the promise of distraction, and maybe even the chance to meet a woman, Hunter acquiesces to the fishing adventure, despite his tendency toward seasickness. But outings with Damian are just as uncertain as the sea.

Story
This short story from the collection Wild Child was originally published in Playboy. It's the middle of a snow storm, and Johnny Bandon, a washed up crooner in the style of Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin, is getting ready to record a Christmas single. The session musicians are there, and so is his backup singer. Darlene Delmar is a down and out soul singer ravaged by cheating boyfriends and STDs. But for this one moment in time, maybe music can reach out and soothe both Johnny and Darlene's souls just one more time.

Story
Marita Vallalba is revered in her Venezuelan village, and not just because her son, Aquiles Maldonado, is a big league baseball player in the United States. In fact, it is because of her son and his multimillion-dollar contract that has been splashed across the Venezuelan newspapers that she is kidnapped and held for ransom. Upon returning home, Aquiles is advised against paying the ransom, but he is prepared to go to any lengths to get his motherback.

Story
This short story from the collection Wild Child was originally published in the New Yorker. Dámaso Funes is a medical miracle. He didn't make a sound when he was born, and as the years go by it's found that he doesn't feel pain. Not when he picks up hot coals with his bare hands or when he breaks his leg. To his father he is a sideshow freak, a spectacle from which he can make money, but to the village doctor who delivered him he is much more. He is a marvel, a wonder of genetics - the next step of human evolution.

Story
Smithstown is a divided community, and Cal is right in the middle. He believes, like his best friend Dave, that evolution is scientific fact. But he's drawn to Lynnese, a devout Christian who believes in intelligent design and whose daughter, Mary-Louise, has only widened the chasm forming in the town. As Smithstown is split between science and religion and their place in the local high school, Cal doesn't know which way to turn or which side of the road to walk on.

Story
Thirteen-year-old Dill has a tendency to get in trouble, to act out, and perhaps it is due to his mother's latest boyfriend, Grady, leaving them behind. Meanwhile Sanjuro Ichyguro and his wife have moved from Japan to the United States and are having trouble adjusting. Between the cultural divide, the swelling emotions of their respective losses, and budding pyromania, Dill and Sanjuro are waging a silent war between their neighboring houses.

Story
Endlich wird der aufstrebende wissenschaftliche Assistent Fitz auf eine der LSD-Partys seines Professors, des Psychologen und LSD-Gurus Timothy Leary, eingeladen. Er erhofft sich davon einen wichtigen Karriereschritt, merkt aber bald, dass Learys Ziele weniger medizinischer Natur sind; es geht dem Psychologen um eine Revolution des Bewusstseins und eine von sozialen Zwängen losgelöste Lebensform. Fitz wird mitgerissen von dieser Vision, mit Frau und Sohn schließt er sich der Leary-Truppe an.

Story
Denied a dog, a baby, and even a faithful boyfriend, Cat decides that she needs a snake: a glistening, writhing creature that can be worn like “jewelry, living jewelry.” But when the budding social influencer finally gives in to impulse, buying a Burmese python from a local pet shop, she sets in motion a chain of increasingly dire events that culminates in one of the most memorable denouements in recent fiction, one that ensnares her entire family, from her eco-obsessed parents, Ottilie and Frank, to her frat-boy-turned-husband, Todd.
