Death in the Woods and Other Stories

Still fresh and strikingly contemporary, the stark realism of these stories carefully explores the dreams and emotions of Sherwood Anderson’s unforgettable characters. In Death in the Woods, we travel deep into the heart of America as Anderson saw it, to find an introspective man, in a desolate landscape, questioning the very meaning of his world.”Death in the Woods is a signal junction in Anderson’s career and is to my mind one of the finest stories in our language.”—Jim Harrison
