One of the Guardian's most anticipated books for 2026, the first ever collection of short stories from the New York Times bestselling, National Book Award-winning author of The Friend

'Once you discover Sigrid Nunez, you don't look back' ANNE ENRIGHT
'Among the most interesting writers of our generation' INDEPENDENT
'Nunez accomplishes in her stories what we have come to expect of her from her marvellous novels: a no-nonsense honesty, a matchless intelligence, an unswerving empathy, and a breathtaking intimacy of voice' JENNY MUSTARD
'A treasure trove' PUBLISHERS WEEKLY

It Will Come Back to You takes in thirteen stories - never before collected together - from a career spanning three decades, which has seen Nunez become one of contemporary fiction's most distinctive voices. Moving from an inappropriate teenage crush to a therapist's second chance at love, in this collection Nunez maintains her irrepressible humour, bite, and insight, while exploring the philosophical questions we have come to expect from her writing.

'What's consistent across Nunez's books is their searching tone about the biggest of life's questions' WASHINGTON POST
'Long live Sigrid Nunez' LAURA MARLING
'I am committed, until one of us dies, to Nunez's novels. They are short, wise, provocative, funny' DWIGHT GARNER, NEW YORK TIMES
'There are two kinds of people in the world, people who haven't read Sigrid Nunez, and people who love Sigrid Nunez' CLAIRE KOHDA
'Wonderful ... Her uncertain protagonists in an uncertain world are the perfect literary creations: vexed in their own lives but delightful to encounter' BIDISHA©2026 Sigrid Nunez Anthologien & Kurzgeschichten Belletristik

Kritikerstimmen

One of the great writers of our time ... A collection of 13 short stories that explore mortality, thorny relationships and intellectual curiosity - hallmarks of her writing. With remarkable tenderness, Nunez navigates themes of aging, death and mental illness. Reading her work feels like having lunch with your smartest, wisest, most empathetic friend
Nunez injects these stories with a deep tenderness and a wry sense of humor, all the while challenging our conceptions of what it means to live an ordinary life
With It Will Come Back to You, Nunez wonderfully accomplishes in her stories what we have come to expect of her from her marvellous novels: a no-nonsense honesty, a matchless intelligence, an unswerving empathy, and a breathtaking intimacy of voice. Her prose manages at once to be absolutely singular, yet so easy to love. Every page is a joy, not a single sentence is wasted. Nunez has long since established herself as one of my favourite authors
A treat ... each story showing how Nunez can turn the everyday into something quietly devastating, then slip in a line that makes you laugh despite yourself. Expect grief, art, love, mortality, and the strange intimacy of ordinary conversation-now in perfectly tart, bite-size form
There are two kinds of people in the world, people who haven't read Sigrid Nunez, and people who love Sigrid Nunez'
This is a wonderful collection and brilliant showcase for Sigrid Nunez's many talents. She excels in the intriguing start, the curious setting and the mischievous end. Her uncertain protagonists in an uncertain world are the perfect literary creations: vexed in their own lives but delightful to encounter
Masterful ... Nunez's sharp wit remains a steady presence across the collection, roaming freely from one heavy subject to the next without ever slipping into sentimentality. It's a treasure trove
Nunez is a strong writer at every level, but she's especially good at closings that nail their points in place, from the everyday to the sublime ... Nunez's stories make a welcome addition to an already much esteemed body of work
A dazzling collection ... Each of these stories, even the most ostensibly wispy, reverberates long after it ends
