Curtis Sittenfeld, inspired by a peculiar incident from her childhood, revisits the story of a woman who photocopied her rear end at a real estate office in the 1980s in her new collection, Show Don't Tell. During a visit to Cincinnati, she reflects on this memory with her friend Anne Morriss, who recalls the event vividly. Sittenfeld explores themes of human behavior and the embarrassment that follows social blunders, linking these ideas to her career and character development in her previous works.
