Reseña del editor
A collection of stories arranged chronologically detail the author's literary progression, her unique and intricate style, and her influence on readers and writers
Nota de la solapa
in this edition represent the great diversity of her work, from humor to her shocking explorations of the human psyche. The tales range, chronologically, from the writings of her college days and residence in Greenwich Village in the early 1940s, to the unforgettably chilling stories from the period just before her death. They provide an exciting overview of the evolution of her craft through a progression of forms and styles, and add significantly to the body of her published work.
Just an Ordinary Day is a testament to how large a talent Shirley Jackson had and to the depth, breadth, and complexity of her writing. Though this remarkable literary life was cut short, Jackson clearly established a unique voice that has won a permanent place in the canon of outstanding American literature, and remains a powerful influence on generations of readers and writers.

Softcover. Condición: Good. Jackson at her best: plumbing the extraordinary from the depths of mid-twentieth-century common. [Just an Ordinary Day] is a gift to a new generation.-San Francisco ChronicleAcclaimed in her own time for her short story The Lottery and her novel The Haunting of Hill House-classics ranking with the work of Edgar Allan Poe-Shirley Jackson blazed a path for contemporary writers with her explorations of evil, madness, and cruelty. Soon after her untimely death in 1965, Jacksons children discovered a treasure trove of previously unpublished and uncollected stories, many of which are brought together in this remarkable collection. Here are tales of torment, psychological aberration, and the macabre, as well as those that display her lighter touch with humorous scenes of domestic life. Reflecting the range and complexity of Jacksons talent, Just an Ordinary Day reaffirms her enduring influence and celebrates her singular voice, rich with magic and resonance.Praise for Shirley Jackson[Jacksons] work exerts an enduring spell.-Joyce Carol OatesShirley Jacksons stories are among the most terrifying ever written.-Donna TarttAn amazing writer . . . If you havent read [Jackson] you have missed out on something marvelous.-Neil GaimanShirley Jackson is unparalleled as a leader in the field of beautifully written, quiet, cumulative shudders.-Dorothy ParkerAn author who not only writes beautifully but who knows what there is, in this world, to be scared of.-Francine ProseThe world of Shirley Jackson is eerie and unforgettable.-A. M. HomesJackson enjoyed notoriety and commercial success within her lifetime, and yet it still hardly seems like enough for a writer so singular. When I meet readers and other writers of my generation, I find that mentioning her is like uttering a holy name.-Victor LaValle. Nº de ref. del artículo: SONG0553378333
