Why she loves him

"Why She Loves Him is a collection of short stories. The title sequence is a discontinuous narrative: a series of stories that traces the fraught relationship between a young woman, Meg, who is on the run with her lover, Jimmy - a self-styled modern-day outlaw, who's wanted for murder. The remaining stories cover a vast terrain, temporally and geographically, but are linked thematically - with the desire for escape or change a recurring refrain in many of the stories."--Provided by publisher.
