Elizabeth Hardwick was one of America's great postwar women of letters, celebrated as a novelist and as an essayist. This first collection of Hardwick's short fiction reveals her brilliance as a stylist and as an observer of contemporary life. Until now, however, her slim but remarkable achievement as a writer of short stories has remained largely hidden, with her work tucked away in the pages of the periodicals--such as Partisan Review, The New Yorker, and The New York Review of Books--in which it originally appeared.
A girl's boyfriend is not quite good enough, his "silvery eyes, light and cool, revealing nothing except pure possibility, like a coin in hand." A magazine editor's life falls strangely to pieces after she loses both her husband and her job. A young woman returns from New York to her childhood Kentucky home and discovers the world of difference within her.
