These ten stories take us across the country--from rural Pennsylvania to Southern California to suburban Connecticut--and deep into characters struggling to find meaning in their day-to-day lives. The Theory of Light and Matter is a stunningly astute vision of contemporary American suburbia, full of tension, heartbreak, and emotional complexity--the work of an important new voice.
