The new book from the New York Times bestselling and National Book Award winner Sigrid Nunez: a collection of stories that take us from an inappropriate teenage crush to a therapist's second chance at love, all with Nunez's signature combination of wit, intelligence and compassion.
One of the Guardian's most anticipated books for 2026, the first ever collection of short stories from the New York Times bestselling, National Book Award-winning author of The Friend
'Once you discover Sigrid Nunez, you don't look back' ANNE ENRIGHT
'Among the most interesting writers of our generation' INDEPENDENT
'Nunez accomplishes in her stories what we have come to expect of her from her marvellous novels: a no-nonsense honesty, a matchless intelligence, an unswerving empathy, and a breathtaking intimacy of voice' JENNY MUSTARD
'A treasure trove' PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
It Will Come Back to You takes in thirteen stories - never before collected together - from a career spanning three decades, which has seen Nunez become one of contemporary fiction's most distinctive voices. Moving from an inappropriate teenage crush to a therapist's second chance at love, in this collection Nunez maintains her irrepressible humour, bite, and insight, while exploring the philosophical questions we have come to expect from her writing.
'What's consistent across Nunez's books is their searching tone about the biggest of life's questions' WASHINGTON POST
'Long live Sigrid Nunez' LAURA MARLING
'I am committed, until one of us dies, to Nunez's novels. They are short, wise, provocative, funny' DWIGHT GARNER, NEW YORK TIMES
'There are two kinds of people in the world, people who haven't read Sigrid Nunez, and people who love Sigrid Nunez' CLAIRE KOHDA
