Editorial Reviews

In this study of the late, lamented writer (d. 1988), Runyon reveals an ambitious metafiction beneath the terse style of Carver's works and places Carver squarely in the context of the minimalist debate. Foreword by Stephen Dobyns. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
