Dusk and Other Stories by James Salter
First published nearly a quarter-century ago and one of the very few short-story collections to win the PEN/Faulkner Award, this is American fiction at its most vital--each narrative a masterpiece of sustained power and seemingly effortless literary grace. Two New York attorneys newly flush with wealth embark on a dissolute tour of Italy; an ambitious young screenwriter unexpectedly discovers the true meaning of art and glory; a rider, far off in the fields, is involved in an horrific accident--night is falling, and she must face her destiny alone. These stories confirm James Salter as one of the finest writers of our time.James Salter has written nine volumes, including A Sport and a Pastime, Dusk and Other Tales, which won the 1989 PEN/Faulkner Prize, and Burning the Days: Recollection. Kay Salter is a journalist and writer who has contributed to magazines such as The New York Times and Food & Wine. Fabrice Moireau is a graphic artist, illustrator, and set and product designer who lives in Colorado and Long Island. With his wife and children, he resides in Olivet, France.
