The wisdomandmdash; or foolhardinessandmdash; of that approach is at the heart of each of these stories.andnbsp; In andldquo; Iandrsquo; ll Be Home, andrdquo; a young man who has converted to Judaism goes home for Christmas in Miami, and finds that his desire to connect to his parents conflicts with his need to move on. andldquo; The Movements of the Bodyandrdquo; introduces us to a woman who believes that she can control the disintegration of her life through a carefully measured balance of whiskey and mouthwash. These are stories about loss and fear, but also about the courage that drives us all to continue to reach out to the people around us.
