A collection of short stories about women’s lives. The protagonists in these tales of what has been called “women’s ways of knowing” are united by female reconciliation, growth and wisdom. With humor, pathos, and bravado, the characters experience “self in relation” to the world as a microcosm of contemporary womanhood.

“Croning Tales” is rich with stories of observation, exploration, risk-taking, and self-determination. As the various characters come to grips with their situations, we recognize a piece of ourselves and meet a host of women we’d love to call “friend.”
