the 2012 Story Prize Chosen as a notable or best book of the year by The New York Times 
Entertainment Weekly  The LA Times  Newsday  Barnes & Noble  Amazon  the iTunes bookstore  and
many more...   "Electrifying." -The New York Times Book Review   "Exhibits the potent blend of
literary eloquence and street cred that earned him a Pulitzer Prize… Díaz's prose is vulgar 
brave  and poetic." -O Magazine  From the award-winning author  a stunning collection that
celebrates the haunting  impossible power of love.  On a beach in the Dominican Republic  a
doomed relationship flounders. In a New Jersey laundry room  a woman does her lover's washing
and thinks about his wife. In Boston  a man buys his love child  his only son  a first baseball
bat and glove. At the heart of these stories is the irrepressible  irresistible Yunior  a young
hardhead whose longing for love is equaled only by his recklessness--and by the extraordinary
women he loves and loses.  In prose that is endlessly energetic  inventive  tender  and funny 
these stories lay bare the infinite longing and inevitable weakness of the human heart. They
remind us that passion always triumphs over experience  and that "the half-life of love is
forever."
