Descriere & specificații

Faber Stories, a landmark series of individual volumes, presents masters of the short story form at work in a range of genres and styles. n n A chance encounter leads a man to spend the afternoon with an older woman, now a widow, who escaped him fifteen years earlier. Neither of them doubts that the day will end in disgust, but for one intimate moment each finds a way to overcome mortality. n n Written in 1969, before Milan Kundera was known to English-speaking readers, this story renders male and female characters painful equals, and prompted Philip Roth to admire its 'detached Chekhovian tenderness'. n n Bringing together past, present and future in our ninetieth year, Faber Stories is a celebratory compendium of collectable work. n
