Book
Paperback. Condition: Very Good. RTE Guide's Book of the Year, 2018 Richard Russo's characters in these four expansive stories bear little similarity to the blue-collar citizens we're familiar with from many of his novels. In 'Horseman,' a professor confronts a young plagiarist as well as her own weaknesses as the Thanksgiving holiday looms closer and closer. In 'Intervention,' a real estate agent facing an ominous medical prognosis finds himself in his father's shadow while he presses forward - or not. In 'Voice,' a semi-retired academic is conned by his estranged brother into joining a group tour of the Venice Biennale, fleeing a mortifying incident with a traumatised student back in Massachusetts but encountering further complications in the maze of Venice. And in 'Milton and Marcus,' a lapsed novelist tries to rekindle his screenwriting career, only to be stymied by the pratfalls of that trade when he's called to an aging, iconic star's mountaintop retreat in Wyoming. Each of these stories is shot through with the humour, wisdom and surprise for which Richard Russo has long been acclaimed as Trajectory continues to extend the breadth of his achievements. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: As New. 1st Edition. First Edition. Literary essay collection sold along with gratis unread ARC paperback of Trajectory: Stories from 2017. THE DESTINY THIEF is a bright, clean & tight copy, unread, in As New condition. "In these nine essays, Richard Russo draws from his life as a writer, teacher and reader, as a son, husband, father and friend. From a commencement speech he gave at Colby College to the story of how an oddly placed toilet made him reevaluate the purpose of humor in art and life, to a comprehensive analysis of Mark Twain's value, to his harrowing journey accompanying a dear friend as she pursued gender-reassignment surgery, THE DESTINY THIEF reflects the broad interests and experiences of one of America's most acclaimed and beloved authors. Warm, funny, wise and poignant, Russo's essays traverse his writing life, expanding our understanding of who he is and how his singular, incredibly generous mind works. An utter joy to read, they provide deep insight into the creative process from the perspective of one of our greatest writers." [jacket copy] "A remarkable and insightful exploration into the mind of a wonderful writer."-- Book Reporter. "As a whole, the book is a quest to understand nothing less than why life turns out the way it does. He weaves scenes from [his] destiny-swapping years--the gut-punching failures; the life of teaching that enabled the life of writing--with literary long takes, illuminating a winding road trip. Perhaps what's most admirable about these essays is their genial and searching tone. In this know-it-all age Russo places his faith in the ideals of art--ambiguity, paradox, heresy, the sublime--over the black-and-white ideologies or our current politics."--New York Times Book Review. + TRAJECTORY: STORIES: "Classic Russo. He again shows how adept he is at portraying life as a tragicomedy [and] sets the bar high, and gives readers plenty to enjoy and mull as his characters ponder their life trajectories."--Jenny Shank. "Russo's [characters] are sharply in view, and like opera singers performing quintets or sestets, they are all vital contributors. Equally significantly, their problems spring from their personalities, and the resolutions are heart-warming because they do indeed feel like real possibilities. All four stories are challenging because they raise questions about why we live our lives the way we do, and if that's all right."--Claire Hopley, The Washington Times. Pristine, unread copies, in AS NEW condition, w/brilliant corners & crisp edges, square & tight bindings, both quite presentable.
