Vanderhaeghe, Guy

SHORT STORIES.: Ticknor & Fields, 1985. 230 pp. 1 corner lightly feathered, tiny nicks to head and foot of spine. First American Edition. "Vanderhaeghe has the uncanny ability to show us the world through the eyes of an eleven-year-old boy as convincingly as he reveals it through the eyes of an old man approaching senility. Moving from the hilarious farce of teenage romance all the way to the numbing tragedy of life in a ward for incurables, these twelve stories inspire belief, admiration, and enjoyment, and come together to form a vibrant chronicle of human experience from a gifted observer of life’s joys and tribulations. This is Guy Vanderhaeghe’s brilliant first book of fiction.". First Edition. Trade Paperback. Near Fine. (more information)
