A collection of short stories giving an insight in to small town America and the American psyche. A great read for those short train journeys or a few spare moments to treat yourself.
June 2010 Guest Editor Patrick Gale on Raymond Carver...
Carver’s stories took the form Chekhov perfected and reinvented it for the television era. Pithy, funny and desperately bleak evocations of everyday life in suburban hell, they’re written in a prose so finely balanced as to take on the quality of poetry; shiny and well-made as a 1958 Frigidaire.
