Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Winner of the Barbara DiBernard Prize in Fiction Fantastical, sensual, and as beguilingly strange as they are insightful and real, the stories of All Daughters Are Awesome Everywhere are centered around intimate familial or romantic relationships, featuring protagonists who make awesome discoveries-from the beautiful to the horrible-in seemingly mundane situations. The protagonists in each story come from marginalized communities, which sometimes exacerbates their problems but always allows for unique perspectives and epiphanies. A violinist nearly hits a bicyclist with her car on her rush to rehearsal, leading to a blissful affair and speculation about the effect of love on her violin playing. The whispering of schoolgirls leads a teacher to consider her own fears and failings. In the title story the nature of motherhood, fatherhood, and familial pride plays against a backdrop of death and high school theater. These are stories of human frailty and newfound strengths, with surprising confrontations.

Bellinger finds magic in the smallest moments and makes the biggest moments resonate with a quiet intensity.…
