09.17: Tom Barbash
2013-08-13 23:35:38| Powells Books Events Calendar
The stories in Tom Barbash's wondrous and evocative collection, Stay Up with Me (Ecco Press), explore the myriad ways we try to connect with one another and with the sometimes cruel world around us. The characters in Stay Up with Me find new truths when the old ones have given out or shifted course. In the tradition of classic story writers like John Cheever and Tobias Wolff, Barbash laces his narratives with sharp humor, psychological acuity, and pathos, creating deeply resonant and engaging stories that pierce the heart and linger in the imagination. Barbash will be joined in conversation by Peter Rock, author of The Shelter Cycle and My Abandonment.
