In her latest translated volume of collected short fiction, Rumena Bu~arovska delivers more of what established her as "one of the most interesting writers working in Europe today." Already a bestseller across her native Macedonia, I'm Not Going Anywhere is an unsentimental and hyperrealist collection in which Macedonians leave their country of origin to escape bleakness--only to find, in other locales, new kinds of desolation in theses dark, biting, and utterly absorbing stories. -- Goodreads.
