This author wrote a story in which Nancy looks at the "white moon Â… covered with scars" during a night of insomnia while her husband sleeps. One of his stories ends with the sentence "I held that half of him," referring to the steelhead fish which the narrator catches with the help of a neighborhood boy and then cuts in half. He also wrote a story in which Jack and Fran visit a couple who have an incredibly ugly baby and a pet peacock. In another of his stories, the narrator draws the title structure while a blind man named Robert holds his hand. Mel says "It seems to me we're just beginners at love" in a short story by this man structured after The Symposium. That story is from a collection edited by Gordon Lish, the manuscript version of which is called Beginners. For 10 points, name this writer of short stories such as "What We Talk About When We Talk About Love."
