Una donna molto bella che ha avuto una vita difficile e la racconta in tanti piccoli quadri, protagonista la narratrice onnisciente o vari personaggi secondari, diversissimi tra loro: un vecchio indiano americano incontrato in una lavanderia; una ragazza giovanissima che scappa da una clinica messicana di aborti per ricche americane; la suora di una scuola cattolica; un'insegnante gay.

Storie viste dal marciapiede, dal basso di chi nei luoghi sta. Cartoline, brevi lettere, trenta racconti scritti come si fa quando si parte per davvero e si racconta una storia a qualcuno che si ama. Con lo stesso titolo era già uscito un altro racconto di Erri De Luca, alla fine degli anni Novanta. In quell'edizione c'erano le storie dei suoi viaggi nella Bosnia in guerra, nel pieno della Guerra civile jugoslava. In questo altro Pianoterra quelle storie non ci sono quasi più. Resta però identica la prospettiva di chi guarda. Perché questo audiolibro è un "atto di residenza".

Il volume raccoglie 19 racconti e un poemetto in versi. Cinque sono apparsi nella piccola raccolta "I colpi dei sensi" (Fahrenheit 451, Roma 1993). In questa sequenza di racconti esiste un motivo conduttore: l'insistenza degli affetti e della memoria, l'ossessione di una felicità che trova condivisioni e coerenze e che prova di volta in volta a chiamarsi amore, comunismo, giustizia. Infatti, "Due non è il doppio ma il contrario di uno, della sua solitudine. Due è alleanza, filo doppio che non è spezzato".

Esilaranti e sulfurei, questi nove racconti aprono uno squarcio sulla vita americana, mettendone a nudo il sentimento di un'epoca. Con narrazione incendiaria, David Foster Wallace evoca personaggi storici come Lyndon Johnson, presentatori televisivi, yuppies, punk e proletari della provincia più depressa, indagando il drammatico gioco tra verità e finzione, "la materia di cui sono fatti i sogni collettivi." Uscita nel 1989, questa raccolta è considerata un classico della letteratura americana.
