Description: "Cathedral" is the author's third collection of stories. Nowhere in his earlier fiction is the alchemy by which he transmutes the banal into the numinous so strange and so potent as it is in "Cathedral." Indeed, the twelve stories in this book constitute a kind of grammar that feathery language only the heart ever hears, and only at four o'clock in the morning.

Condition: Near Fine
Description: A beautiful copy of this book of short stories. The only defect is a 1/2" closed tear to rear pane that has been expertly repaired.Carver's title story, some say, is his finest. These twelve stories constitute a kind of grammar of that feathery language only the heart ever hears, and only at four o'clock in the morning. A dozen stories. Carver's first collection without Gordon Lish as an editor. Lish was largely responsible for Carver's early success, but Carver increasing felt that Lish's editing was too extreme, that it was changing the essence of his stories. The success of this collection proved that Carver was a master storyteller without Lish's assistance.

Description: A Fine tight unread copy in a Fine, unclipped dust jacket. This collection of twelve short stories includes: Feathers; Chef's House; Preservation; The Compartment; A Small Good Thing; Vitamins; Careful; Where I'm Calling From; The Train; Fever; The Bridle; and Cathedral. Carver's style has also been described as dirty realism, a school of writers who focused on sadness and loss in the everyday lives of ordinary people often lower-middle class or isolated and marginalized people. Carver saw Cathedral as a watershed in his career, in its shift towards a more optimistic and confidently poetic style.
