"In "Thanatology," Noreen, a level-headed teenager, tries to bring a realistic perspective to her dreamy and impractical mother Tish, who is having an affair with her boss who is also the father of one of Noreen's classmates." "In "Mental," two sisters, perhaps a little unbalanced themselves, try to figure out how to get their handsome, delusional brother Brian into a mental hospital." "In "Texas Sounds Like an Easy Place to Leave," a young mother tries to keep track of her sons, lift the spirits of her laid-off husband, and make sense of the events leading to the murder-suicide of the older couple across the street."--BOOK JACKET. | |
