The Coast of Chicago Stuart Dybek 1st edition
The Coast of Chicago
Stuart Dybek
The stolid landscape of Chicago suddenly turns dreamlike and otherworldly in Stuart Dybek?s classic story collection. A child?s collection of bottle caps becomes the tombstones of a graveyard. A lowly rightfielder?s inexplicable death turns him into a martyr to baseball. Strains of Chopin floating down the tenement airshaft are transformed into a mysterious anthem of loss. Combining homely detail and heartbreakingly familiar voices with grand leaps of imagination, The Coast of Chicago is a masterpiece from one of America?s most highly regarded writers.
