Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

"You should read Fires now. These stories and poems ... show the enormous talent of Raymond Carver beginning to take hold." —San Francisco Chronicle

"Seminal in Carver studies.... A disparate collection of work bound by a unity of vision and obsession." —Los Angeles Herald Examiner

"Carver's most revealing book.... This collection confirms the worth of Raymond Carver's work.... Like bright birds in distant trees, Carver's stories appear in flashes, glimpses; Fires reveals the arc of his purposeful flight." —The Boston Globe
