Vintage Books, New York: 1991. Softcover. Reading copy. Hilarious, perverse, extraordinary: such is the world of The Safety of Objects, a breakthough collection of storie by A. M. Holmes. A girl's blond Barbie doll seduces her teenaged brother in an intense episode of erotic obsession; a Mom and Dad take drugs while the kids are at Grandma's; a lawyer seeks revenge by sabotaging the senior partner's potted plant. At once otlandish and believable, the lives of these characters expose the dangers of ordinary life even as they stay hidden in the disguises they have so carefully created. Literary puzzles [that make] compulsive reading. - The New York Times Book Review ¶ 175 pages.
