The World to Come: Stories
ISBN: 9780525432319 / Angielski / Miękka / 2018 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. "Without a doubt the most ambitious story writer in America," according to The Daily Beast, Jim Shepard now delivers a new collection that spans borders and centuries with unrivaled mastery. These ten stories ring with voices belonging to--among others--English Arctic explorers in one of history's most nightmarish expeditions, a young contemporary American negotiating the shockingly underreported hazards of our crude-oil trains, eighteenth-century French balloonists inventing manned flight, and two mid-nineteenth-century housewives trying to forge a connection despite their...

You Think That's Bad
ISBN: 9780307742148 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Following Like You'd Understand, Anyway--awarded the Story Prize and a finalist for the National Book Award--Jim Shepard returns with an even more wildly diverse collection of astonishingly observant stories. Like an expert curator, he populates the vastness of human experience--from its bizarre fringes and lonely, breathtaking pinnacles to the hopelessly mediocre and desperately below average--with brilliant scientists, reluctant soldiers, workaholic artists, female explorers, depraved murderers, and deluded losers, all wholly convincing and utterly fascinating.

One Inside
ISBN: 9781101974384 / Angielski / Miękka / 2018 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 12 dni roboczych. The first work of long fiction from the Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright--a tour de force of memory, mystery, death, and life.
This searing, extraordinarily evocative narrative opens with a man in his house at dawn, surrounded by aspens, coyotes cackling in the distance as he quietly navigates the distance between present and past. More and more, memory is overtaking him: in his mind he sees himself in a movie-set trailer, his young face staring back at him in a mirror surrounded by light bulbs. In his dreams and in visions he sees his late father--sometimes in miniature,...

Love and Hydrogen: New and Selected Stories
ISBN: 9781400033492 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. I've been a problem baby, a lousy son, a distant brother, an off-putting neighbor, a piss-poor student, a worrisome seatmate, an unreliable employee, a bewildering lover, a frustrating confidante and a crappy husband. Among the things I do pretty well at this point I'd have to list darts, re-closing Stay-Fresh boxes, and staying out of the way. This is the self-eulogy offered early on by the unwilling hero of the opening story in this collection, a dazzling array of work in short fiction from a master of the form. The stories in Love and Hydrogen--familiar to readers from...

Recently revived at New York's Circle in the Square, where Seymour Hoffman and John C.
