Selected Stories
"Every sentence . is a series of short shocks of (agreeably envious) pleasure."A.S. Byatt
Named to Kirkus Reviews' Best Story Collections of 2015Featuring the story adapted into the Academy Award nominated film, 45 YEARS"I started reading these stories quietly, and then became obsessed, read them all fast, and started re-reading them again and again. They are gripping tales, but what is startling is the quality of the writing. Every sentence is both unpredictable and exactly what it should be."A.S. Byatt, The GuardianThe first American publication by one of the greatest living fiction masters, In Another Country spans David Constantine's remarkable thirty-year career. Known for their pristine emotional clarity, their spare but intensely evocative dialogue, and their fearless exposures of the heart in moments of defiance, change, resistance, flight, isolation, and redemption, these stories demonstrate again and again Constantine's timeless and enduring appeal.David Constantine is an award-winning short story writer, poet, and translator.
