About This Item

New York. 1992. June 1992. Pantheon Books. Advance Reader's Galleys. Very Good in Wrappers. 0679407197. 432 pages. paperback. keywords: Literature Black America Men. FROM THE PUBLISHER - A major literary event by ‘one of America's premier writers of fiction' (New York Times) and a two-time winner of the prestigious PEN Faulkner Award - this book brings together the complete stories thus far, including those from DAMBALLAH and FEVER, as well as ten stories written especially for this collection, themselves entitled ALL STORIES ARE TRUE. In the tradition of major twentieth-century American authors - William Faulkner to John Cheever - who have charted for themselves at once specific and imaginary regions of the American landscape, John Edgar Wideman writes intensely lyrical and rageful stories about African-Americans from all walks of life in Homewood, a black section of Pittsburgh - stories about ancestors, family, and lovers caught in the vortex of American history and haunted by their own particular demons. Here are luminous stories, informed by the metaphysics of the blues, about the sublimities and terrors of the human condition. inventory #26834 ISBN: 0679407197.
