Soft cover. Condizione: Fine. 1st Edition. First Vintage Contemporaries Edition, April 2000, 1st printing. National Book Critics Circle Award Finalist sticker on cover. Bright, clean & tight copy, unread, in Fine condition. "David Gates offers up ten ferociously readable short stories about the faulty bargains we make with ourselves to continue the high-wire act of living meaningful lives in late twentieth-century America. These stories are populated by highly educated men and women who are in combat with each other, with substance abuse, and above all with their own relentless self-awareness. Even their faultless analysis of how they got where they are can't ameliorate the fact that they'd rather be just about anywhere else. [] Set in and around New York City, the stories in THE WONDERS OF THE INVISIBLE WORLD put urbanism into uneasy conflict with a dream of rural happiness, and they confirm David Gates as one of the best and wittiest writers of our time." [publisher copy] "Nimbly crafted . . . rendered with meticulous emotional detail and an astringent sense of the absurdities and self-indulgences of contemporary life."--Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times. "Gates demonstrates his pitch-perfect ear for the snappy conversations, reveries, and rattling inner monologues . . . that few writers are able (or willing) to confront with so much wit, sympathy, and lethal precision."--Francine Prose, Elle. "A true heir to both Raymond Carver and John Cheever."--Walter Kirn, New York. "Gates is like John Updike without God."--Newsday. Fine paperback w/brilliant corners & crisp edges (slight bend to upper back corner), a square & tight binding w/no creases in spine.…
