FROM THE PUBLISHER - Before she wrote her Pulitzer Prize-winning bestseller THE SHIPPING NEWS, E. Annie Proulx was already producing some of the finest short fiction in the country. Here are her collected stories, including two new works never before anthologized. These stories reverberate with rural tradition, the rites of nature, and the rituals of small-town life. The country is blue-collar New England; the characters are native families and the dispossessed working class, whose heritage is challenged by the neo-rural bourgeoisie from the city; and the themes are as elemental as the landscape: revenge, malice, greed, passion. Told with skill and profundity and crafted by a master storyteller, these are lean, tough tales of an extraordinary place and its people. inventory #35835 October 31, 1988' Penned On Front Free Endpaper,Otherwise Very Good in Slightly Worn Dustjacket

Has the "not for resale" stamp and it looks to me as if someone attempted some light sanding to get rid of it. The dust jacket is extremely nice except for a red mark on the back. A somewhat unusal copy but well priced and fully guaranteed.
