Descripción Hardcover. Condición: New. 1. These eight new stories from the celebrated novelist and short-story writer Nathan Englander display a gifted young author grappling with the great questions of modern life, with a command of language and the imagination that place Englander at the very forefront of contemporary American fiction.The title story, inspired by Raymond Carvers masterpiece, is a provocative portrait of two marriages in which the Holocaust is played out as a devastating parlor game. In the outlandishly dark Camp Sundown vigilante justice is undertaken by a group of geriatric campers in a bucolic summer enclave. Free Fruit for Young Widows is a small, sharp study in evil, lovingly told by a father to a son. Sister Hills chronicles the history of Israels settlements from the eve of the Yom Kippur War through the present, a political fable constructed around the tale of two mothers who strike a terrible bargain to save a child. Marking a return to two of Englanders classic themes, Peep Show and How We Avenged the Blums wrestle with sexual longing and ingenuity in the face of adversity and peril. And Everything I Know About My Family on My Mothers Side is suffused with an intimacy and tenderness that break new ground for a writer who seems constantly to be expanding the parameters of what he can achieve in the short form.Beautiful and courageous, funny and achingly sad, Englanders work is a revelation.

Descripción Hardcover. Condición: New. Estado de la sobrecubierta: New. 1st Edition. A new collection of stories from a master of the short story form. "Nathan Englander is one of those rare writers who, like Faulkner, manages to make his seemingly obsessive, insular concerns all the more universal for their specificity. It's this neat trick, I think, that makes the stories in his new collection so utterly haunting." -- Richard Russo.
