Cathedral by Raymond Carver
PULITZER PRIZE FINALIST * Twelve short stories that mark a turning point in the work of "one of the true American masters" (The New York Review of Books)."A writer of astonishing compassion and honesty ... His eye is so clear, it almost breaks your heart." --The Washington Post Book World
A remarkable collection that includes the canonical titular story about blindness and learning to enter the very different world of another. These twelve stories "overflow with the danger, excitement, mystery and possibility of life." --The Washington Post Book World
