A second volume of short fiction—featuring fourteen uncollected stories— from the bestselling author and master of the form T.C. BOYLE STORIES II The Collected Stories of T. Coraghessan Boyle, Volume II T.C. BOYLE Few authors write with such sheer love of story and language as T.C. Boyle, and that is nowhere more evident than in his inventive, wickedly funny, and always entertaining short stories. In 1998, T.C. Boyle Stories brought together the author’s first four collections to critical acclaim. Now, T.C. Boyle Stories II gathers the work from his three most recent collections along with fourteen new tales previously unpublished in book form as well as a preface in which Boyle looks back on his career as a writer of stories and the art of making them. By turns mythic and realistic, farcical and tragic, ironic and moving, Boyle’s stories have mapped a wide range of human emotions. The fifty-eight stories in this new volume, written over the last eighteen years, reflect his maturing themes. Along with the satires and tall tales that established his reputation, readers will find stories speaking to contemporary social issues, from air rage to abortion Praise for the short stories of T.C. Boyle: “ Boyle is capable of shifting scales from the lyrical to the vernacular, the literary to the mundane without the slightest strain.” —The New York Times “ Boyle is a dazzling writer, a hugely exuberant, infinitely capable storyteller.” —The Wall Street Journal “ Few writers at work have a wider set of referents, a broader comic range. . . . Boyle has the taleteller’s gift in abundance.” —The Chicago Tribune 10 doctors, and character-driven tales of quiet power and passion. Others capture timeless themes, from first love and its consequences to confrontations with mortality, or explore the conflict between civilization and wildness. The new stories find Boyle engagingly testing his characters’ emotional and physical endurance, whether it’s a group of giants being bred as weapons of war in a fictional Latin American country, a Russian woman who ignores dire warnings in returning to her radiation-contaminated home, a hermetic writer who gets more than a break in his routine when he travels to receive a minor award, or a man in a California mountain town who goes a little too far in his concern for a widow. Mordant wit, emotional power, exquisite prose: it is all here in abundance. T.C. Boyle Stories II is a grand career statement from a writer whose imagination knows no bounds. • T.C. Boyle’s Drop City and The Women were New York Times bestsellers and The Inner Circle, Talk Talk, When the Killing’s Done, and San Miguel all appeared on the New York Times extended list • His short stories regularly appear in The New Yorker, Harper’s, and Playboy, among numerous other publications • Boyle is a member of the American Academy of Arts and Letters and was the 1999 recipient of the PEN/Malamud Award for Excellence in Short Fiction • Visit tcboyle.com
