About this item
by Ellen Gilchrist (Author)
With the publication of 1983's The Annunciation, Ellen Gilchrist established herself as a teller of charming, bittersweet tales of the modern South.
Suffused with wit, irony, and the bittersweet complications of love, the writings of Ellen Gilchrist occupy a unique place in American fiction. From early novels such as The Annunciation to recent story collections such as Flights of Angels, Gilchrist writes with a keen insight into the foibles of human nature, while narrating the off-kilter lives of her delightfully eccentric and unforgettable characters. The stories in this volume, selected by Gilchrist herself, constitute the best--and best-loved--work of one of the finest storytellers in modern southern literature.
