Thirty-nine stories from one of America's most accomplished writers."Cassill has been a master of the American short story for forty years, and this is a brilliant showcase of his work."--Oakley Hall"In the world of short fiction, this collection of thirty-nine stories is a major event, for R.V. Cassill is a literary artist, a modern master of short fiction. And here is his best work. Cassill's concept of the short-story form is lofty, his material treats the possibilities of humanity observed; he is disciplined and at the same time unusually sensitive to American life in full resonance."--James B. Hall"R.V. Cassill is a writer very much in the American vein; in this collection he captures the spirit of life at the heart of this country over several decades. He is a master at compelling the reader's attention from the very first line of a story, pulling us into vivid and memorable American lives."--Kit Reed
