Description

|
|
|
Over the past 25 years, Algonquin's New Stories from the South has published the work of well-known writers like James Lee Burke, Andre Dubus, Barbara Kingsolver, Lee Smith, and Reynolds Price, as well as others who were just beginning their careers—Larry Brown, Jill McCorkle, and Abraham Verghese, for example. This 25th volume reaches out beyond the South for a guest editor who is one of the most acclaimed short story writers of our day; Amy Hempel admits, "I've always had an affinity for writers from the South," and in her choices, she's identified the most inventive, heartbreaking, and chilling stories being written by Southerners all across the country. Here are entries by Rick Bass, Wendell Berry, Elizabeth Spencer, Wells Tower, Padgett Powell, Dorothy Allison, Brad Watson, and 17 others.
