Filled with an abiding sense of love and family, and of the forces that test them to the breaking point, <i>Wildlife</i>--first published by Atlantic Monthly Press in 1990 and now reissued as a Grove Press paperback--is a book whose spare poetry and expansive vision established it as an American classic.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Ford brings the early Hemingway to mind. Not many writers can survive the comparison. Ford can. <i>Wildlife</i> has a look of permanence about it." <b><i>--Newsweek</b></i> <p>"A stylistic grace that goes to the heart of its subject . . . shrewdly focused . . . powerful and haunting." <b><i>--The Boston Globe</b></i> <p>"This intense work confirms Richard Ford as one of the most formidable writers of his generation." <b><i>--The Baltimore Sun</b></i> <p>"Shot through with nuance and minute observation . . . It may even assume the weight of myth." <b><i>--The New York Times Book Review</b></i> <p>"Richard Ford is one of the best writers and <i>Wildlife</i> is his best novel. . . . This is, in all likelihood, the finest novel of coming of age since <i>The Catcher in the Rye</i>." <b><i>--The Star-Ledger</b></i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>RICHARD FORD is the author of six novels and three collections of stories.
