Descriere & specificații

Set largely in rural Louisiana, Tim Gautreaux's masterful debut story collection follows men and women whose ordinary lives reach a point of rupture, a moment when convention gives way to crisis and everything changes: A drunken train engineer charges toward disaster, a father borrows and old airplane to chase down his daughter's kidnapper, a young man falls in love with a voice on the radio. Written with humor, suspense, and a powerful affection for humanity in all its wild forms, Same Place, Same Things is the first great work by a master of the form.

His fiction has appeared in The Atlantic Monthly , Harper's, GQ, and Zoetrope , and also in volumes of The O. Henry Prize Stories , Best American Short Stories , and New Stories from the South . He is a professor emeritus/writer in residence in the English Department at Southeastern Louisiana University.
