Your Duck Is My Duck
By Deborah Eisenberg
240 pages;
Ecco
A woman mourns her marriage's demise, her husband's reflexive "I love yous" now conjuring an image of "yellow police tape at a crime scene." A clique of retired Hollywood stars reunites to gripe about a tell-all memoir. Eisenberg's sparkling stories transport us to a zany, fractious world mirroring the dark shadows of our own.
