Meloy’s first return to short stories since her critically acclaimed debut, Both Ways Is the Only Way I Want It is an extraordinary new work from one of the most promising writers of the last decade.
Eleven unforgettable new stories demonstrate the emotional power and the clean, assured style that have earned Meloy praise from critics and devotion from readers. Propelled by a terrific instinct for storytelling, and concerned with the convolutions of modern love and the importance of place, this collection is about the battlefields—and fields of victory—that exist in seemingly harmless spaces, in kitchens and living rooms and cars. Set mostly in the American West, the stories feature small-town lawyers, ranchers, doctors, parents, and children, and explore the moral quandaries of love, family, and friendship. A ranch hand falls for a recent law school graduate who appears unexpectedly— and reluctantly—in his remote Montana town. A young father opens his door to find his dead grandmother standing on the front step. Two women weigh love and betrayal during an early snow. Throughout the book, Meloy examines the tensions between having and wanting, as her characters try to keep hold of opposing forces in their lives: innocence and experience, risk and stability, fidelity and desire.
Knowing, sly, and bittersweet, Both Ways Is the Only Way I Want It confirms Maile Meloy’s singular literary talent. Her lean, controlled prose, full of insight and unexpected poignancy, is the perfect complement to her powerfully moving storytelling.

历时一周，用碎片化的时间读完了《两全其美》，这是我第一次读短片小说集，怎么说呢，感慨颇深。 全书共讲述了十一个故事，这十一个故事都是独立的，每个故事都很平淡，但每个故事读完后都有一种意犹未尽的感觉。无论是是那个情窦初开的少女，百般失落的老人，暗恋那个女孩的农...

評分平日喜欢看电影，我超爱凯莉·雷查德，特别是《米克的近路》，那是一部反类型的杰作：传统西部片中由男性主导的暴力性景观，转化为女性的沉默、忍耐和长途跋涉……雷查德拒绝了戏剧性，拒绝观众的眼光，转而向生活本身的真实性靠拢，以剧中女性的视角，塑成一个更为完整的世界...
評分作者笔下的人观察力敏锐。可必须要交谈的时候，他们像是潜水钟，无法准确地，或者因为这样那样的顾虑，无法完全地表达出自己的看法。是懦弱呀，喉咙紧着，心跳快了，说着别的话搪塞过去了，心里不断不断地自责着。 Meloy 的描写往往避开人物本身：她写他们眼里看到的景与物。而...

太小我瞭，所以最小我的兄弟滑雪記還更鮮活一點。很多篇在以為要結束的節點其實隻到一半，修正瞭狹隘的我。
评分I just cannot bring myself to give a shit about the characters... no connection whatsoever... 好像能感受到作者想走的文風方嚮，但最後結果文筆過於平淡。聽的有聲書，narrator們非常好，算是個亮點
评分Her writings are pretty subtle, and the flow of the narrative goes well. I’m not sure if it’s autobiographical since she is from Montana. But she definitely captures the transitions which caused by mobility, or displacement. Very impressionist. Anyone who identifies with a small town person may like it since all the settings are about it.
