"Desire, events, and identity intersect and sometimes collide for Katharine Weber's compelling characters. Children go door to door selling poison mushrooms. An elderly New Yorker on the brink of losing her independence bolts for one last dignified adventure. In the title novella, lonely children roaming their Connecticut neighborhood discover a forgotten bomb shelter, which they make their secret headquarters. Jane of Hearts offers Katharine Weber's readers a lively assortment of her short fiction, each story a precise and nuanced investigation of its moments"-- Provided by publisher.
