I Know You Know Who I Am: Stories"Riveting Every lie reveals itself so exquisitely that the parallels become an added pleasure, as soon as we uncover the ways they diverge."

Here is a confident, psychologically astute new writer with a bold new vision." Garrard Conley, New York Times bestselling author of Boy Erased Throughout this striking debut
"Riveting... Every lie reveals itself so exquisitely that the parallels become an added pleasure, as soon as we uncover the ways they diverge." --New York Times Book Review "Peter Kispert's dazzling collection is a reminder that fiction tells lies in order to discover truth. Here is a confident, psychologically astute new writer with a bold new vision." --Garrard Conley, New York Times bestselling author of Boy Erased Throughout this striking debut collection we meet characters who have lied, who have sometimes created elaborate falsehoods, and who now must cope with the way that those deceptions eat at the very fabric of their lives and relationships. In the title story, the narrator, desperate to save a love affair on the rocks, hires an actor to play a friend he invented in order to seem less lonely, after his boyfriend catches on to his compulsion for lying and demands to know this friend is real; in "Aim for the Heart," a man's lies about a hunting habit leave him with an unexpected deer carcass and the need to parse unsettling high school memories; in "Rorschach," a theater producer runs a show in which death row inmates are crucified in an on-stage rendering of the New Testament, while being haunted daily by an unrequited love and nightly by ghosts of his own creation. In I Know You Know Who I Am, Kispert deftly explores deception and performance, the uneasiness of reconciling a queer identity with the wider world, and creates a sympathetic, often darkly humorous, portrait of characters searching for paths to intimacy.Binding Type: Paperback

Cute, Comfortable, and Kid-Approved
Size: 10 Toddler, Color: Pink
These Amazon Essentials hook-and-loop athletic sneakers are very pink, so they may not immediately read as “unisex” in color. That said, at this age range, kids’ shoe sizing is the same for boys and girls, which is likely what the unisex label refers to.
The shoes fit true to size and are well made. The craftsmanship is solid, with neatly applied seams and glue and no rough edges. The stretchy laces are permanently closed, which keeps them tidy, while the Velcro strap opens wide enough to make it easy for kids to put their feet in and take them off independently.
Comfort-wise, these are a win. The inner heel has good cushioning so the shoes don’t rub or scrape the foot. The insole is flat but soft, and the toe box shape works well for most foot shapes. My granddaughter finds them very comfortable for everyday wear.
The uppers are made from a nylon-type material combined with soft faux suede, which gives them a nice look and feel. Overall, these sneakers are cute, comfortable, and well made for the price, making them a great everyday shoe option for toddlers and kids.
