Winner of the Frank O'Connor International Short Story Award, two O Henry prizes, and a finalist for the PEN\/Faulkner Award, Rash brilliantly illuminates the tensions between the traditional and the modern, the old and new south, tenderness and violence, man and nature. Though the focus is regional, the themes of Rash’s work are universal, striking an emotional chord that resonates deep within each of our lives.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eSomething\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cem\u003eRich and Strange\u003c\/em\u003e showcases this revered master’s artistry and craftsmanship in thirty stories culled from his previously published collections \u003cem\u003eNothing Gold Can Stay, Burning Bright, Chemistry, \u003c\/em\u003eand \u003cem\u003eThe Night New Jesus Fell to Earth\u003c\/em\u003e. Each work of short fiction demonstrates Rash’s dazzling ability to evoke the heart and soul of this land and its people—men and women inexorably tethered to the geography that defines and shapes them. Filled with suspense and myth, hope and heartbreak, told in language that flows like “shimmering, liquid poetry” (\u003cem\u003eAtlanta Journal Constitution\u003c\/em\u003e), \u003cem\u003eSomething Rich and Strange\u003c\/em\u003e is an iconic work from an American literary virtuoso. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"HarperCollins","offers":[{"title":"Audiobook","offer_id":49345242136880,"sku":"BDbg5y","price":32.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Audio CD","offer_id":49345242169648,"sku":"ZEbg5y","price":55.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0879\/2784\/9264\/files\/bg5y-Square-cover.jpg?v=1776916216","url":"https:\/\/downpour.com\/products\/book-bg5y","provider":"Downpour","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
