The Collected Stories of Eudora Welty

Welty, Eudora

Collects all 41 stories of 'A Curtain of Green', 'The Wide Net', 'The Golden Apples', 'The Bride of Innisfallen' plus 'Where is the Voice Coming From?' and 'The Demonstrators', both previously unpublished and spanning three decades; preface by the author – a lover of tall tales as well as a truth teller.
Set during the pre-Civil Rights US and mostly about a white Mississippi adjusting to a new South, the stories of racial injustice and polarised societies resonate with events in the US today; Welty's writing defying pigeon holing as it shifts from high comedy and whimsy, poignant desolation and socialist realism, to folklore and fairytale.
