Book Description Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. in "The Way People Run," one of America's finest writers, the author of "Mason's Retreat"(magnificent"--Publishers Weekly) and "In a Father's Place" (radiant-The New York Times), gives us a new collection of stunning short stories, brilliant fiction about the deep emotional connections, and disconnections, between people and within people's inner lives. Against the backdrop of vivid settings, especially the Chesapeake Bay region and the American west, Tilghman writes with passion, generosity, and grace about the ways people confront themselves and the lives they've created. In "The Way People Run," chosen by Robert Stone for the 1992 Best American Short Stories volume, a man goes west to find a new job and, out of the framework of the familiar, loses his hold on his family and his old life. In "Something Important," Peter Ramsey undertakes a reunion with his long lost brother, and discovers that his wife is in love with someone else. In "Things Left Undone," chosen by Tobias Wolff to appear in the 1994 Best American Short Stories, a young couple tries to survive a tragedy. As Andre Dubus said about "In a Father's Place,"Christopher Tilghman "is a spiritual writer who often looks at things the rest of us cannot see." Life's truths are at the heart of these magnificent stories by a modern American master. The book is in new condition with no markings or highlighting on the pages. The book jacket does show some shelf wear. The book has rough deckled page edges. Seller Inventory # 1031
