Still fresh and strikingly contemporary, the stark realism of these stories carefully explores the dreams and emotions of Sherwood Anderson's unforgettable characters. In <I>Death in the Woods</I>, we travel deep into the heart of America as Anderson saw it, to find an introspective man, in a desolate landscape, questioning the very meaning of his world.<br/><br/>"<I>Death in the Woods</I> is a signal junction in Anderson's career and is to my mind one of the finest stories in our language."Jim Harrison
