ISBN: 9788072078660 / Czeski / 220 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Takto by se v roce 1981 jmenovala a takto by vypadala druhá velká Carverova sbírka, kdyby ji redaktor Gordon Lish autorovi neseškrtal, nepřepsal a nepřejmenoval na O čem mluvíme, když mluvíme o lásce. Zachovala se korespondence obou pánu, ze které vyplývá, že se Carver velmi snažil své dílo uhájit, ale nebylo mu to nic platné: Lish mu z některých povídek vyhodil čtyři pětiny textu. Carver (1938-1988) ještě za svého života některé původní verze vydal, ale v úplnosti nyní přepsané povídky vycházejí poprvé.
