| 520 | |a "From the bestselling novelist, travel writer, and "master of the short story" (NPR) comes a brilliant new collection.

With the insight, subtlety, and empathy that has long characterized his work, Theroux has written deeply moving stories about memory, longing, and the passing of time, reclaiming his status, once again, as a master of the form"-- |c Provided by publisher. | ||
