Publisher's Summary
A stunning collection of short stories from the author of In Certain Circles.
This collection of short fiction from Elizabeth Harrower features a number of previously unpublished works and 'Alice', which was published for the first time in The New Yorker in 2015.
Internationally acclaimed for her five brilliant novels, Elizabeth Harrower is also the author of a small body of short fiction. A Few Days in the Country & Other Stories brings together for the first time her stories published in Australian journals in the 1960s and 1970s along with those from her archives.
Essential listening for Harrower fans, these finely turned pieces show a broader range than the novels, ranging from caustic satires to gentler explorations of friendship.
Critic Reviews
"[A Few Days in the Country creates] taut portraits and compact examinations of power, vulnerability and hope.... Harrower's best stories slip as surely into your bones as her novels." (The Sydney Morning Herald)
