“At his shattering best…Mr. Banks offers answers that are tough, honest and inevitable without being simple…[A] beautifully lucid, frequently wrenching collection…What elevates these stories far above their tacitly heartbreaking events are the vast reserves of compassion and wisdom that Mr. Banks brings to framing tragedy.”
New York Times
""At his shattering best… Banks offers answers that are tough, honest, and inevitable without being simple… . A book that is not to be missed."" —New York Times
With The Angel on the Roof, acclaimed author Russell Banks offers readers an astonishing collection of thirty years of his short fiction, revised especially for this volume and highlighted by the inclusion of nine new stories that are among the finest he has ever written.
As is characteristic of all of Bank's works, these stories resonate with irony and compassion, honesty and insight, extending into the vast territory of the heart and the world, from working-class New England to Florida and the Caribbean and Africa. Broad in scope and rich in imagination, The Angel on the Roof affirms Russell Banks's place as one of the masters of American storytelling.
