A Big Storm Knocked It Over (2015) - Plot & Excerpts
It did not seem to Jane Louise that she was pregnant, and it did not seem that the press was going to be sold any minute. Jane Louise felt that her life was a time bomb. One day she would wake up, feel queer, and have a baby. One day she would walk into her office and be told that it had changed utterly and that she was out of a job. Or one day she would discover that she could not have a baby and she could slink off into the darkness, leaving Teddy to find some fertile, uncomplicated woman who would never give him a moment’s pause and present him with a big, fine family. It rattled Teddy to see her so worried: She tried to mitigate her feelings. It was her job, she felt, to be breezy, efficient, to get the job done cheerily, even if she felt she had a stone for a heart, one that was radiating terrible waves of panic. Suddenly it was spring. In Mrs. Berger’s little front yard, crocuses began to bloom. Teddy came home one night with a flat of primroses and a pot of paper white narcissus.
