Heart Songs and Other Stories - by Annie Proulx (Paperback)

The Fen, Bog, and Swamp collection of short stories by Annie Proulx is a masterful work of fiction that explores the lives of rural New Englanders with unflinching honesty and profound insight.

With two never-before-published works included in this edition, readers will be captivated by the author's skillful storytelling and deep appreciation for life lived close to the earth.

The stories are lean, tough, and elemental, with themes of revenge, malice, greed, passion, and the struggle between the native families and the dispossessed working class.

Proulx's prose is supple, strong, and filled with striking images that complement New England's lavish but barren beauty.

This collection is a must-read for fans of Annie Proulx and anyone who appreciates exceptional short fiction.
