Just read a wonderful short "A Stone Woman" from her collection "Little Black Book of Stories and was completely won over. Any suggestions as to which other books by her to pick up?

Fri, September 12, 2008 - 11:50 AMYeah....I'm not normally one for the romantic thang.
I'm a bit sad and try to read booker winners and a couple off each short list....
just to try a different author and get out of my comfort zone,
that's how I ended up reading it! -
