Description
Mythic and realistic, farcical and tragic, The Washington Post Book World says these masterful stories mark T. Coraghessan Boyle‘s development from “a prodigy’s audacity to something that packs even more of a wallop: mature artistry.” They cover everything, from a terrifying encounter between a bunch of suburban adolescents and a murderous, drug-dealing biker, to a touching though doomed love affair between Eisenhower and Nina Khruschev.”Satirical fables of contemporary life, so funny and acutely observed that they might have been written by Evelyn Waugh as sketches for…’Saturday Night Live.’ …Indeed, the best of his stories not only make the reader see; they make the reader hear and smell and feel.” —The New York TimesT. C. Boyle is the author of eleven novels, including World’s End (winner of the PEN/FaulknerAward), Drop City (a New York Times bestseller and finalist for the National Book Award), and The Inner Circle. His most recent story collections are Tooth and Claw and The Human Fly and Other Stories.
