Book excerpt: In "Degrees of Nakedness," Lisa Moore's first story collection, the joys and distresses of love course through modern - day Newfoundland like an electric current. Lisa Moore's stories are bright, emotionally engaging, tangible. She marks out the precious moments of her characters' lives against deceptively commonplace backdrops - a St. John's hospital cafeteria lit only by the lights in the snack machines; a half - built house ''like a rib cage around a lungful of sky'' - and the results linger long in the memory. In "Degrees of Nakedness" Lisa Moore shows us that love, alongside desire, can sometimes come as a surprise, sometimes an ambush.
