NATIONAL BOOK CRITICS CIRCLE AWARD WINNER - "Un forgettable tales of families and lovers--from Haiti to Miami, Brooklyn, and beyond--often struggling with grief, loss, and missed connections." -- Vanity Fair - REESE'S BOOK CLUB PICK A romance unexpectedly sparks between two wounded friends. A marriage ends for what seem like noble reasons, but with irreparable consequences. A young woman holds on to an impossible dream even as she fights for her survival. Two lovers reunite after unimaginable tragedy, both for their country and in their lives. A baby's christening brings three generations of a family to a precarious dance between old and new. A man falls to his death in slow motion, reliving the defining moments of the life he is about to lose. Set in locales from Miami and Port-au-Prince to a small unnamed country in the Caribbean and beyond, here are eight emotionally absorbing stories, rich with hard-won wisdom and humanity. At once wide in scope and intimate, Everything Inside explores with quiet power and elegance the forces that pull us together or drive us apart, sometimes in the same searing instant. Review: I highly recommended it - The book is of very good quality, the sheets are thick enough and the cover is sturdy. This is a reading that everyone should experience and know, I highly recommend it. ———————— El libro es de muy buena calidad, las hojas son lo suficientemente gruesas y la portada es resistente.

Walking the line between Haiti and the US
A very good book exploring the complex relationships of those Haitians that have connections with both the island and the USA through the medium of short stories. At it's best, innovative explorations of both scenes and events, bringing forth the psychological perspectives of the protagonists. At times, it feels like the stories are aimed at a women's magazine audience, although there is nothing wrong with that.

Did not enjoy, depressing stories
I am not a short story fan! I found the stories to be depressing. I did not enjoy this book at all☹️
