Unpaginated. ***'When Raymond Carver died in 1988, all too early at 50, he left behind a wonderful legacy - eleven books of short stories and poems - that clearly establishes him as one of the finest of American writers. He has "changed our vision of the world," according to Tess Gallagher in her Introduction. "He leaves the world strangely altered and amplified, yet also mysteriously itself." ***It was Bob Abelman, the photographer, who sensed that he could capture the world of Raymond Carver in the companion art of photography. He conceived of this project while Raymond Carver was still alive, and they corresponded about the photographs, many of which Carver saw and delighted in - as if his life was coming back to him, frame by frame. The text here has been taken from Carver's unpublished letters and from short stories - there are also a number of extraordinary poems here. Taken together, the text and the photographs become a journey for us through the touchstones in Raymond Carver's life.' ***A nicely produced book, of interest to collectors of work by and about the American poet Raymond Carver. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc. Bob Adelman [Photographs] (illustrator).…
