"What do you do when everything you've ever known changes? Whether tragedy comes in the form of a paralyzing accident, an attack, a misguided home purchase, or the simple realization of age, the women of Everything Has Already Changed each confront her own personal crisis. In her debut, collection, Megan Stolz seeks the moments of quiet grace that emerge out of trial, and juxtaposes beauty and pain to showcase her characters' fragility and persevering hope." -Jessica Jonas
