Sobre este artículo
This is the Advance Uncorrected Proofs of Without a Hero, the fourth collection of short stories by the American author T. Coraghessan Boyle. The book would be published in 1994; this proof is from 1993.
It is covered by a plastic printing of the cover which would be used on the final book. This plastic wrap is not attached to the spine (it never was).
It was sent to a journalist for review. She did not review it, but did sign one of the title pages and date it 1997.
Other than that, there is not a mark on it. It's in mint condition.
Sinopsis
T.C. Boyle was first feted as a master of the short story for his critically acclaimed Greasy Lake . With these stories applauded by People magazine as "wickedly comical," he displays once again a virtuosity and versatility rare in literary America today. Without a Hero zooms in on American phenomena such as a center for the treatment of acquisitive disorders; a couple in search of the last toads on earth; and a real estate wonder boy on a dude safari near convenient Bakerfield, California. Sharp, guileful, and malevolently funny, Boyle's stories are "more than funny, better than wicked," says The Philadelphia Inquirer . "They make you cringe with their clarity."
