A literary event of the highest order, The Collected Stories of Richard Yates brings together Yates's peerless short fiction in a single volume for the first time. Richard Yates was acclaimed as one of the most powerful, compassionate, and technically accomplished writers of America's postwar generation, and his work has inspired such diverse talents as Richard Ford, Ann Beattie, André Dubus, Robert Stone, and Kurt Vonnegut Jr. This collection, as powerful as Yate's beloved Revolutionary Road, contains the stories of his classic works Eleven Kinds of Loneliness (a book The New York Times Book Review hailed as "the New York equivalent of Dubliners") and Liars in Love; it also features nine new stories, seven of which have never been published. Whether addressing the smothered desire of suburban housewives, the white-collar despair of Manhattan office workers, the grim humor that attends life on a tuberculosis ward, or the moments of terrified peace experienced by American soldiers in World War II, Yates examines every frayed corner of the American dream. His stories, as empathetic as they are unforgiving, are like no others in our nation's literature. Published with a moving introduction by the novelist Richard Russo, this collection will stand as its author's final masterpiece.

Young, newly married and intensely ambitious, Michael Davenport is trying to make a living as a writer. His adoring wife, Lucy, has a private fortune that he won't touch in case it compromises his art. She in turn is never quite certain of what is expected of her. All she knows is that everyone else seems, somehow, happier. In this magnificent novel, at once bitterly sad and achingly funny, Richard Yates again shows himself to be the supreme chronicler of the American Dream and its casualties.

In a startling change of direction, cult favorite Tao Lin presents a dark and brooding tale of illicit love that is his most sophisticated and mesmerizing writing yet Richard Yates is named after real-life writer Richard Yates, but it has nothing to do with him. Instead, it tracks the rise and fall of an illicit affair between a very young writer and his even younger—in fact, under-aged—lover. As he seeks to balance work and love, she becomes more and more self-destructive in a play for his undivided attention. His guilt and anger builds in response until they find themselves hurtling out of control and afraid to let go. Lin's trademark minimalism takes on a new, sharp-edged suspense here, zeroing in on a lacerating narrative like never before—until it is almost, in fact, too late. “Richard Yates is neither pretentious nor sneering nor reflexively hip . . . simply a focused, moving, and rather upsetting portrait of two oddballs in love.” —The Boston Globe “The most intelligent and hilarious book I've read all year . . . crushingly sad . . . at some points, beautiful.” —Vice

Richard Yates (1926-1992) has been described as a "writer's writer" but has never received the critical attention befitting that designation. Firmly rooted in the zeitgeist of 1950s, his work remains startlingly relevant, addressing themes of American identity, the nature of marriage and relationships between men and women, and what it means to get ahead in a society entranced by a flawed American Dream. This collection of new essays is the first to focus on this under-appreciated author. It opens up his body of work for a new generation of readers, and positions Yates as a writer of significance in the American tradition.

Even as little girls, Sarah and Emily are very different from each other. Emily looks up to her wiser and more stable older sister and is jealous of her relationship with their absent father, and later her seemingly golden marriage. The path she chooses for herself is less safe and conventional and her love affairs never really satisfy her. Although the bond between them endures, gradually the distance between the two women grows, until a tragic event throws their relationship into focus one last time.

Dakota Fanning e Haley Joel Osment hanno 16 e 22 anni e i nick di due attori prodigio di Hollywood.I due si conoscono sulla chat di Gmail, si piacciono, si frequentano dentro e fuori la rete.Lei è un’adolescente precoce e infantile, che vuole crearsi un’identità lontano da una madre iperprotettiva e una famiglia disfunzionale. Lui lavora part-time come bibliotecario mentre cerca di faredella scrittura un mestiere. Lei alterna i compiti di scuola a piccoli furti e sedute di psicoterapia; lui, vegano e ipersalutista, gira l’America per i reading dei suoi libri. Insieme fanno progetti, si annoiano, promettono, mentono. Giorno dopo giorno, mail dopo mail, messaggino dopo messaggino, in una dimensione alienata ai limiti dell’autismo, galleggiano in un mondo in cui la comunicazione è priva di ogni sfumatura emotiva e le relazioni sono usa e getta, un mondo in cui l’unico imperativo sembra quello di avere notorietà in tempi rapidi e a buon mercato. Sullo sfondo, la suburbia anonima del New Jersey e le strade di New York, metropoli capace di spazzare via i sogni degli adolescenti.In Richard Yates, Tao Lin sceglie il minimalismo per raccontare l’amore giovanile ai tempi dei social network, tra chat, riti e feticci della società dei consumi, rivelandosi un acuto osservatore della nostra controversa contemporaneità
