Glossolalia: New & Selected Stories celebrate more than 30 years of writing, awards, and honors by David Jauss, whose short stories have been reprinted in such anthologies as Best American Short Stories, The O.

Henry Awards: Prize Stories, and, twice in The Pushcart Prize: Best of the Small Presses, as well as in The Pushcart Book of Short Stories: The Best Stories from the Pushcart Prize.

Wally Lamb, author of She's Come Undone and We Are Water, says, "If I were in charge of the seating arrangements, I'd reserve a place for David Jauss in the very first row of contemporary American fiction writers.

Glossolalia: New & Selected Stories is why.

Each story delivers stunning revelations of deep human truths, and each hitches Jauss's formidable storytelling powers to his very good heart.

I'm in awe of this collection.
