These twelve stories mark a turning point in Carver's work and "overflow with the danger, excitement, mystery and possibility of life. . . .

His eye is so clear, it almost breaks your heart" (Jonathan Yardley, <i>Washington Post Book World</i>).</p><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p>Raymond Carver was born in Clatskanie, Oregon, in 1938.
