A mother dwells on how broken her only daughter is, and whether her grandchild is all the crueler for it. A man''s obsession with bettering his lot in life to impress a woman develops a fascination instead for poisonous snakes. A young wife is confronted by her husband''s former boarding school roommate, a demented man whose misogyny has convinced him that she tore a rightful pairing apart. And literary agent lives for decades thinking that she caused a college classmate''s suicide, then encounters the woman at a party.
