In Pam Houston’s “bright, edgy, and ruefully self- aware” ( Boston Globe ) collection of stories, we meet smart women who are looking for the love of a good man, and men who are wild and hard to pin down. Our heroines are part daredevil, part philosopher, all acute observers of the nuances of modern romance.
“[Houston] takes women into grand spaces, both emotional and physical, and isolates them until there’s nothing left to do but sit down and take a hard look at one’s soul” ( Los Angeles Times ). Cowboys Are My Weakness is an “exhilarating” ( Washington Post ) and realistic look at men and women— together and apart.
