Book excerpt: By the time of his early death in 1988, Raymond Carver had established himself as one of the great practitioners of the American short story, a writer who had not only found his own voice but imprinted it in the imaginations of thousands of readers. Where I’m Calling From, his last collection, encompasses classic stories from Cathedral, What We Talk About When We Talk About Love, and earlier Carver volumes, along with seven new works previously unpublished in book form. Together, these 37 stories give us a superb overview of Carver’s life work and show us why he was so widely imitated but never equaled.

Book excerpt: This autobiographical account speaks out about domestic violence, parental alienation and mental illness. In particular it expresses the damage done when family members refuse to admit there is a problem, and instead turn on the person who raises the alarm. This is the true story of a disappearance triggered by bullying – and a Facebook campaign that helped bring a missing man home. It documents five years of harassment of a family – harassment that caused behavioural problems, physical illness and ultimately, mental breakdown. Sections written by the author's daughter (now 17) give a child's eye view of living with abuse. Comments by readers include: “Utterly amazed by this objective record of an horrendous experience... the writing drew me in, in an intimate and personal way, producing all sorts of raw emotions. Moved to tears by the chapter on abused wives.” “Could not stop reading. I am simply stunned. Speechless.” “... an inspiration. I've no doubt this book will be invaluable to many women out there who have suffered/are suffering in similar circumstances.” “I could see a movie being made out of this book... there is a great storyline: lovely English woman with two wonderful daughters marries into the Great American Dream, which slowly turns into a nightmare.”
