Author: Carver, Raymond

Condition: New

The most celebrated story collection from one of the true American masters (The New York Review of Books)-a haunting meditation on love, loss, and companionship, and finding ones way through the dark that includes the iconic and much-referenced title story featured in the Academy Award-winning film Birdman."Raymond Carver's America is ... clouded by pain and the loss of dreams, but it is not as fragile as it looks. It is a place of survivors and a place of stories.... [Carver] has done what many of the most gifted writers fail to do: He has invented a country of his own, like no other except that very world, as Wordsworth said, which is the world to all of us." -The New York Times Book Review
