The gripping themes of Dubus's oeuvre - faith and family, violence and loyalty, guilt and morality - have earned him comparisons to master storytellers such as Raymond Carver, Flannery O'Connor, and Anton Chekhov. With a deft touch, Dubus tackles nearly unspeakable subjects. Yet, without succumbing to sentimentality, he imbues his characters with a quiet dignity in stories infused with an unerring belief that even the most complicated moments of our lives contain the possibility of grace. 650 0 $a Interpersonal relations $v Fiction. 700 1 $a Wolff, Tobias, $d 1945- $e writer of introduction 941 $a 2 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20231012030717.0 952 $l AWPD207 $d 20230209014702.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=97D568D6B42211E9B815892E97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
