Summary:
"In 'Who Will Greet You at Home,' a National Magazine Award finalist for The New Yorker, A woman desperate for a child weaves one out of hair, with unsettling results. In 'Wild,' a disastrous night out shifts a teenager and her Nigerian cousin onto uneasy common ground. In 'The Future Looks Good,' three generations of women are haunted by the ghosts of war, while in 'Light,' a father struggles to protect and empower the daughter he loves. And in the title story, in a world ravaged by flood and riven by class, experts have discovered how to 'fix the equation of a person'--with rippling, unforeseen repercussions. Evocative, playful, subversive, and incredibly human, What It Means When a Man Falls from the Sky heralds the arrival of a prodigious talent with a remarkable career ahead of her."--From publisher.
