Intrusions
Brilliantly stretching literary conventions, Ursula Hegi creates a funny and original novel within a novel to explore the doubts, decisions, and "might-have-beens" that mark not only the writing process but life itself. As her "author" and her fictional heroine deal with their intrusions into each other's lives. Hegi reveals much about the choices women make, the ambiguities they face, and the often surprising ways reality and fiction merge.

Mary Mackey San Francisco Chronicle Hegi has a real genius for the material of personal existence, for the world seen close up...fascinating.
