In the Bedroom: Seven Stories
of Andre Dubus, Todd Field (Preface by)
Description
The seven stories collected here--including "Killings," the basis for Todd Fieldâs award-winning film "In the Bedroom"--showcase legendary writer Andre Dubusâs sheer narrative mastery in a book of quietly staggering emotional power.A father in mourning contemplates the unthinkable as the only way to allay his grief. A boy must learn to care for his younger brother when their mother leaves the family. A young woman who has never lacked lovers despairs of ever finding love itself, and then makes an accidental discovery that brings her real joy. Culled from Dubusâs treasured collections Selected Stories and Dancing After Hours, these beautiful stories of people at pivotal moments in their lives are some of the most bewitching and profound in American fiction.
