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.

評分作者笔下的人观察力敏锐。可必须要交谈的时候，他们像是潜水钟，无法准确地，或者因为这样那样的顾虑，无法完全地表达出自己的看法。是懦弱呀，喉咙紧着，心跳快了，说着别的话搪塞过去了，心里不断不断地自责着。 Meloy 的描写往往避开人物本身：她写他们眼里看到的景与物。而...

很久不見這樣精巧講述American Life的短篇小說集，特彆喜歡開篇的幾個故事，有些卡森麥卡勒斯的影子，在營造孤獨感之外不忘時時戳破人性的軟弱和生活的虛妄。中間幾篇有點審美疲勞，最後兩個故事還算不錯。
评分不動聲色的沉重

评分似乎到處都潛伏著一種危機，你也可以把它解讀為兩麵性。最後，附加上NYT上的書評：http://www.nytimes.com/2009/07/12/books/review/Sittenfeld-t.html
