Historia
This Dark Road to Mercy is a tale of love and atonement, blood and vengeance, a story that involves two young sisters, a wayward father, and an enemy determined to see him pay for his sins. When their mother dies unexpectedly, twelve-year-old Easter Quillby and her six-year-old sister, Ruby, are shuffled into the foster care system in Gastonia, North Carolina, a little town not far from the Appalachian Mountains. But just as they settle into their new life, their errant father, Wade, an ex-minor-league baseball player whom they haven't seen in years, suddenly reappears and steals them away in the middle of the night.

After the stunning historical novels The Clearing and The Missing, Tim Gautreaux now ranges freely through contemporary life with 12 new stories and eight from previous collections. Most are set in his beloved Louisiana, many hard by or on the Mississippi River, others in North Carolina, and even in midwinter Minnesota. But generally it's heat, humidity, and bugs that beset his people as they wrestle with affairs of the heart, matters of faith, and the pros and cons of tight-knit communities.

This prodigiously rich collection suggests that Raymond Carver was not only America's finest writer of short fiction, but also one of its most large-hearted and affecting poets. Like Carver's stories, the more than 300 poems in All of Us are marked by a keen attention to the physical world; an uncanny ability to compress vast feeling into discreet moments; a voice of conversational intimacy, and an unstinting sympathy.

Historia
The nine stories and one poem in this volume formed the basis for the astonishingly original film Short Cuts, directed by Robert Altman. Collected altogether in this volume, these stories form a searing and indelible portrait of American innocence and loss. With deadpan humor and enormous tenderness, this is the work of "one of the true contemporary masters" ( The New York Review of Books).

Historia
This prodigiously rich collection suggests that Raymond Carver was not only America's finest writer of short fiction, but also one of its most large-hearted and affecting poets. Like Carver's stories, the more than 300 poems in All of Us are marked by a keen attention to the physical world; an uncanny ability to compress vast feeling into discreet moments; a voice of conversational intimacy, and an unstinting sympathy.

Historia
Here is the original manuscript of Raymond Carver's seminal 1981 collection, What We Talk About When We Talk About Love. Carver is one of the most celebrated short-story writers in American literature - his style is both instantly recognizable and hugely influential - and the pieces in What We Talk About..., which portray the gritty loves and lives of the American working class, are counted among the foundation stones of the contemporary short story.

Historia
Denis Johnson's now classic story collection Jesus' Son chronicles a wild netherworld of addicts and lost souls, a violent and disordered landscape that encompasses every extreme of American culture. These are stories of transcendence and spiraling grief, of hallucinations and glories, of getting lost and found and lost again. The insights and careening energy in Jesus' Son have earned the book a place of its own among the classics of twentieth-century American literature.

With the same deadpan mania and genius for dislocation that he brought to his internationally acclaimed novels A Wild Sheep Chase and Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World, Haruki Murakami makes this collection of stories a determined assault on the normal. A man sees his favorite elephant vanish into thin air; a newlywed couple suffers attacks of hunger that drive them to hold up a McDonald's in the middle of the night; and a young woman discovers that she has become irresistible to a little green monster who burrows up through her backyard.

Historia
Now considered a contemporary classic, Airships was honored by Esquire magazine with the Arnold Gingrich Short Fiction Award. The 20 stories in this collection are a fresh, exuberant celebration of the new American South - a land of high school band contests, where good old boys from Vicksburg are reunited in Vietnam, and petty nostalgia and the constant pain of disappointed love prevail. Airships is a striking demonstration of Barry Hannah's mature and original talent.

This collection of Buk's grimmest diaries gives an insight into the noir and brutal Los Angeles that Bukowski observed and lived so well. He was a legend in his time: a madman, a recluse, a lover...tender, vicious...never the same. These are exceptional stories that came pounding out of his violent and depraved life - horrible and holy. You cannot listen to them and come away the same again.

Historia
Originally published in 1938, Graham Greene’s chilling exposé of violence and gang warfare is a masterpiece of psychological realism and often considered Graham Greene’s best novel. It is a fascinating study of evil, sin, and the “appalling strangeness of the mercy of God,” a classic of its kind.

This book really captures the nuances of love.
The stories and conversations are beautiful examples of love, lust, and loss. I enjoyed listening to them, and everyone can relate to at least once of them!

Bleak but unflinchingly honest.
Testimonial-like tales of murder, failed love, & alcoholism.
This collection contains one of Carver's best stories, So Much Water So Close To Home.
I found I prefer reading Carver to listening to Dietz's reading. Though Dietz excels at novels with a rural feel, and Carver's stories have fishermen, hunters, and the like, there's more bitterness and despair in the writing than comes across in Dietz's vocal performance.

Masterful
There's a reason Carver is considered the master of the literary short form. These stories are simply as real and human as it gets. Each one paints a complete picture of a life in the simplest of terms, and cuts to the bones of the human experience. Heart rending and powerful. Beautiful and blunt.

Great stories, awful performance
I love Raymond Carver -- his stories are quiet yet heartbreaking and powerful. But Norman Dietz's flat, robotic performance ruins this anthology. I'm disappointed that he was chosen to read all of Carver's work, as I would have liked to hear these stories narrated by someone who understands the material and has much more life in their voice.

I actually think the narrator does a good job of reflecting the tone of these stories. All of these are fantastic short stories by one of the very best.

Awful narration.
Carver deserves better than this awful lifeless monotone narrator. It's a shame that he narrates all of his books.

Much Ado About Nothing
I thought that it was Norman Dietz's crusty, monotone narration which made me dispirited when I listened to Raymond Carver's "What We Talk About When We Talk About Love," but as I listened to the stories' sudden drop endings over and over again, I discovered that it was the stories themselves. They are slices of ordinariness, vignettes of character and dialogue that do not go any where. Carver is highly skilled at capturing the voices of America in the center of the country and not on the coasts. These are people who smoke, drink, fish, and hunt. Their attitude toward women and women's attitude towards themselves reflect a specific place and time that has not aged this collection well. The characters have a different rhythm and sensibility as evidenced in their long-winding conversations. This frustrated a city guy such as me who wanted the stories to go, go, go somewhere and to be about something instead of nothing. But as Carver shows, there is nuance, passion, disappointment, hope, and fear in the nothingness. He works all of the shades of gray.

Great writing bad voiceover
They should have a voice that’s more in tune with the copy. This guy sounds like a used car salesman. Ruined it for me and couldn’t make it through.

Bleak
These stories are generally very bleak. The author uses symbolism, sure, but the characters are largely flat and some of the stories seem pointless.
