商品簡介
In these 51 short stories, first published as a collection in 1953, Carr works through some of her favorite subjects, including her experiences with Native people at the turn of the twentieth century, her love for animals and birds, and the life of her mercurial monkey, Woo. Carr's economy of worlds and the deceptive simplicity of her structures reveal her depths carefully, expressing emotions that linger just as effortlessly as they appear to have been set to the page. Carr's biographer and literary agent provide introductions, and Carr herself contributes line drawings from nature. Annotation c2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
