Pilgrims [electronic resource] / Elizabeth Gilbert.
"Elizabeth Gilbert's first collection of short stories is remarkable for its breadth, range of setting, and subject matter ... An outstanding debut; highly recommended" (Library journal). Gilbert's spry stories roam from Wyoming to New York City, from Minnesota to Texas. Cowboys, strippers, magicians--her characters are "everyday people whose ... rich exterior lives mask simple, if brave, hopes and dreams" (Detroit free press). Muscular and insightful, authentic and uproarious, these stories marked the debut of a major new literary talent.
