Living Through the Night by Desiree Jensen
The book jacket summary reads as follows: There are many people living in the night. You can meet them here. Meet men who come face to face with their worst fears and find themselves lost in the world they have always known. Meet women who will do whatever it takes to get what they want. Meet people whose nightmares are murder...Literally.
The title, Living Through the Night, is taken from a quotation from on of Ms. Jensen's favorite authors, Dorothy Parker; "As only New Yorkers know, if you can make it through the twilight, you can live through the night." (If You Can Make it Through the Twilight is the title of one of the ten short stories in the collection.) An extensive review and outline of selected stories can be found at BeShameless.net.
