America's Most Celebrated Short Story Writer,
By IUBookReviewer (Bloomington, IN) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Separate Flights (Paperback)
I have read all of Andre Dubus's work and literally enjoyed every story and novella. This collection, Separate Flights, stands as one of my favorites. The title story "Separate Flights" and "If They Knew Yvonne" dazzle as masterpieces; the latter story made Dubus somewhat of a maverick to the Catholic church; and yet, the reader still feels he writes out of love for Catholicism, which lends an ageless quality to the fiction.
Pick up this collection, allow yourself to be overwhelmed by Dubus's portraits of family, childhood, violence, and love. Do not his exquisite sentence variety and structure. He's truly a writer's writer. Dubus writes of the human experience because there is no greater calling; he reminds us what it is to be human. |
