Notă biografică
William Maxwell (1908-2000) was born in Illinois. He was the author of a distinguished body of work: six novels, three short story collections, an autobiographical memoir and a collection of literary essays and reviews. A New Yorker editor for 40 years, he helped to shape the prose and careers of John Updike, John Cheever, John O'Hara, Sylvia Townsend Warner and Eudora Welty. His novel, So Long Tomorrow won the American Book Award, and in 1995 he received the PEN/Malamud Award.
Descriere
The decision to invite his Southern relatives to stay proves a fateful one for Austin King. Against the perfectly-drawn background of small-town Illinois at the turn of the 20th century, Maxwell once again uncovers the seeds of potential tragedy at the heart of a happily-established family.
Textul de pe ultima copertă
When Austin King plays host to his distant Southern kinfolk, he unwittingly sets in motion events that will threaten his marriage, his law practice, and his standing in the community. For Austin's eagerness to please his idealistic foster cousin, Nora, is all too easily mistaken for other motives--especially since Nora is all too obviously besotted with him. This book is further evidence that Maxwell is one of our national treasures.
