This new edition of \u003cem\u003eThe Collected Stories of William Carlos Williams\u003c\/em\u003e contains all fifty-two stories combining the early collections \u003cem\u003eThe Knife of the Times\u003c\/em\u003e (1932), \u003cem\u003eLife Along the Passaic\u003c\/em\u003e (1938) with the later collection \u003cem\u003eMake Light of It\u003c\/em\u003e (1950) and the great long story, \"The Farmers' Daughters\" (1956). When these stories first appeared, their vitality and immediacy shocked many readers, as did the blunt, idiosyncratic speech of Williams' immigrant and working-class characters. But the passage of time has silenced the detractors, and what shines in the best of these stories is the unflinching honesty and deep humanity of Williams' portraits, burnished by the seeming artlessness which only the greatest masters command.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-369903\"\u003eWilliam Carlos Williams\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e New Directions Publishing Corporation\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/17\/1996\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 388\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.93lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.04h x 5.06w x 1.05d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780811213288\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0811213285\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-FIC\"\u003eFiction\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-FIC029000\"\u003eShort Stories (single author)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"New Directions Publishing Corporation","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42675338477805,"sku":"9780811213288","price":23.42,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_ea838db9-e3f3-49ed-986b-13e1088985ee.jpg?v=1649601656","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/collected-stories-of-william-carlos-williams-9780811213288","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
