A pristine, unread copy. Comes with protective mylar cover. The author's first book, a collection of stories. Last Call was the inaugural winner of the Prairie Schooner Book Prize in Fiction. Stories in the collection were originally published in Threepenny Review, American Short Fiction, Shenandoah, and Post Road. Two of the stories won the Grand Prize in the 2002 Santa Fe Writers Project Literary Arts Series. Set mostly in Texas and the American Southwest, the stories sympathetically depict the blue-collar lives of oil riggers, railroad and steel construction workers, x-ray technicians, waitresses, and a con man who tries to buy Costa Rica and examine themes of multi-generational family dynamics, adolescence, and the tension between work and personal relationships. 4600.
