The first published collection of short fiction from the Pulitzer Prize-winning novelist and reporter.

Media reviews

"Throughout a long and luminous career, John Hersey has established himself as a master reporter in a great age of journalism. He has achieved equal stature as a novelist, though one cannot characterize the fiction of his times with as much certainty as its reportage....The voices here are accurate, the insights convincing. Fling is a fine performance indeed."
