The dazzling and intricate stories in Lee Upton's latest collection frequently draw inspiration from books--books as art objects or lost objects, as inspiration or points of contention. "Night Walkers" tells the story of the world's laziest book club, while "A Story's End" follows a woman's search for the last book read by her mother before her sudden death. In the surreal yet playful tradition of Karen Russell and George Saunders, Visitations brings together seventeen incandescent short stories from a writer at the height of her powers.
