Diesel, A Bookstore says…

Matricide, a woman who intends to have sex with 1,000 men, Iraqi veterans, and the theft of turtles from Bronx Zoo. These are some of the themes that Mary Gaitskill interweaves in Don’t Cry, her latest collection of stories. The author was propelled into the limelight by the adaptation of her 1988 short story "Secretary" into a Maggie Gyllenhaal movie. This book will be the fifth in her 20-year career.
