Another Marvelous Thing is perfect for anyone who knows firsthand that opposites actually do attract. These spare and unsentimental stories display how two very different people—a tough-minded and tenderhearted woman and an urbane, old-fashioned older man—fall in love despite their differences, get married, and give birth to a child. 8 stories: Frank and Billy French Movie A Little Something Another Marvelous Thing A Country Wedding A Couple of Old Flames [originally titled Old Flames] Swan Song My Mistress
