Written with understanding and familiarity, these seven stories present characters who are coming into their own as they discover and rediscover themselves. In "Chuck Paa," a young man in flight from his mother seeks and finds employment in an upscale world, which can never quite become his own. The title story, "The Rose City," tells how a shared lost love brings together two friends who reunite to reflect on their past, their present, and what lies ahead. With the same insight and daring of The Danish Girl , The Rose City secures David Ebershoff's reputation as a writer of rare talent and sensitivity.

( Chicago Tribune ) AUTHORBIO: David Ebershoff is the publishing director of the Modern Library, a division of Random House, Inc.
