Meloy’s first return to short stories since her critically acclaimed debut, Both Ways Is the Only Way I Want It is an extraordinary new work from one of the most promising writers of the last decade.
Eleven unforgettable new stories demonstrate the emotional power and the clean, assured style that have earned Meloy praise from critics and devotion from readers. Propelled by a terrific instinct for storytelling, and concerned with the convolutions of modern love and the importance of place, this collection is about the battlefields—and fields of victory—that exist in seemingly harmless spaces, in kitchens and living rooms and cars. Set mostly in the American West, the stories feature small-town lawyers, ranchers, doctors, parents, and children, and explore the moral quandaries of love, family, and friendship. A ranch hand falls for a recent law school graduate who appears unexpectedly— and reluctantly—in his remote Montana town. A young father opens his door to find his dead grandmother standing on the front step. Two women weigh love and betrayal during an early snow. Throughout the book, Meloy examines the tensions between having and wanting, as her characters try to keep hold of opposing forces in their lives: innocence and experience, risk and stability, fidelity and desire.
Knowing, sly, and bittersweet, Both Ways Is the Only Way I Want It confirms Maile Meloy’s singular literary talent. Her lean, controlled prose, full of insight and unexpected poignancy, is the perfect complement to her powerfully moving storytelling.

評分平日喜欢看电影，我超爱凯莉·雷查德，特别是《米克的近路》，那是一部反类型的杰作：传统西部片中由男性主导的暴力性景观，转化为女性的沉默、忍耐和长途跋涉……雷查德拒绝了戏剧性，拒绝观众的眼光，转而向生活本身的真实性靠拢，以剧中女性的视角，塑成一个更为完整的世界...
評分书名叫两全其美，但其实真正的生活里，哪有两全其美的机会呢，更常见的应该是两手皆空、鸡飞蛋打吧。 贝丝特维斯：单相思。一场从开始几乎注定是失败的爱恋，哪有两全其美，只有求之不得的刻骨铭心。 青涩的成熟：情窦初开。说实话第二个故事有点困惑，感觉是个诱奸幼女？爸爸...

用戶評價
在豆瓣的年度榜上發現的書，短篇小說集，挺不錯的，一次一個故事，寫人的那點小心思。
评分I just cannot bring myself to give a shit about the characters... no connection whatsoever... 好像能感受到作者想走的文風方嚮，但最後結果文筆過於平淡。聽的有聲書，narrator們非常好，算是個亮點
评分太小我瞭，所以最小我的兄弟滑雪記還更鮮活一點。很多篇在以為要結束的節點其實隻到一半，修正瞭狹隘的我。
