    Sometimes Carver's story don't make much sense to me when I first read them; but they haunt me for days. He is probably our best short story writer.

    This is my favorite collection of Raymond Carver shorts.

    A professor thought I might enjoy him because our writing styles are so similar. He quickly became one of my favorites.

    My favorite book from my favorite short story writer of all time. If you have never read Carver, get this book first. A great introiduction to his talent. He writes about normal people in abnormal situations, sometimes not so abnormal, but his style is so smooth, you will care about everyone in the book.
