The debut title in Ecco's the art of the Story Series—a collection of twelve short works of fiction that showcase Tobias Wolff's extraordinary craftIn the Garden of the North American Martyrs, Tobias Wolff's first collection of short fiction, hailed the arrival of a major talent and the beginning of an acclaimed, bestselling career. In each of these sharply crafted stories, his characters, drawn from everyday life, stumble over each other in their baffled yet resolute search for the "right path." Among the characters in these twelve stories are a teenage boy who tells morbid lies about his home life; a timid professor who, in the first genuine outburst of her life, pours out her opinions in spite of a protesting audience; a prudish loner who gives an obnoxious hitchhiker a ride; and an elderly couple on a golden anniversary cruise who endures the offensive conviviality of the ship's social director.
Includes stories from Tobias Wolff's collections "Hunters in the Snow" (1982), "Back in the World" (1985) and "The Barrack's Thief".
Written by the author of "The Barracks Thief", "This Boy's Life" and "Hunters in the Snow", this collection of stories looks at how people rewrite their own histories, and examines how revenge, as another urge to put things right, can take curious forms.
A memoir of a young boy's unusual travels with his mother.
