For fans of Curtis Sittenfeld and Katherine Heiny, a comic and incisive collection of linked stories about women unraveling under the weight of politeness, partnership, and performative perfection.

Formally inventive, expertly crafted, and alive with a generous sense of humor, Just Don't Ask Us What We Do All Day is storytelling at its best.” —Lee Cole, author of Fulfillment

A woman hires a date for her ex’s wedding; another asks a new lover to pose as her daughter’s kidnapper; a third experiments with a sex puppet. A support group for those seeking meaning in dreams spirals into a sapphic obsession. Across fourteen interwoven stories brimming with gasp-worthy reveals, Just Don’t Ask Us What We Do All Day shines a spotlight on the women we ask too much of and the quiet, absurd ways they refuse to comply. Equal parts hilarious and surprising, joyful and defiant, this kaleidoscopic collection offers a rare look into the unknowable lives of strangers from a major talent in short fiction.

批評家のレビュー

Kelly Hill's stories illuminate, with tenderness and unflinching honesty, both the placid surface of American family life and the undercurrents that rise up to disturb it. In her wise and clear-eyed collection, suburbia is a place of peril and wondrous possibility. As her characters navigate sisterhood, motherhood, and friendship, they must grapple with the unruly fears and desires that undermine those roles, sometimes irrevocably. Formally inventive, expertly crafted, and alive with a generous sense of humor, Just Don't Ask Us What We Do All Day is storytelling at its best.”
—Lee Cole, author of Fulfillment

“Just Don't Ask Us What We Do All Day is a vibrant celebration of women reclaiming their lives with wit and grace. Hill’s storytelling sparkles with humor while honoring the strength behind every small rebellion.”
—Andrew Porter, author of The Imagined Life

Entertaining, unpredictable, and sharply observed. Hill portrays characters mired in the messy challenges of midlife with hilarious and unsparing accuracy.”
—Sarah Landenwich, author of The Fire Concerto

“Delightful, perceptive, and funny—I relished Kelly Hill’s wit and candor all the way through this lively, wise collection.”
—Kate Doyle, author of I Meant It Once
