From "one of the great short story writers of our time--of any time" (The Philadelphia Inquirer)--comes more than sixty stories, poems, and essays, including two early versions from the seminal collection, What We Talk About When We Talk About Love.

"Show[s] the enormous talent of Raymond Carver beginning to take hold." --San Francisco Chronicle

A wide-ranging collection by the extravagantly versatile Raymond Carver. Two of the stories that were later significantly revised in What We Talk About When We Talk About Love appear here in their original form, revealing clearly the astounding process of Carver's literary development.
