Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Before John Sayles was an Oscar-nominated screenwriter, he was a National Book Award-nominated writer of fiction. "The Anarchists' Convention" is his first short story collection, providing a prism of America through fifteen stories. These everyday people--a kid on the road heading west, aging political activists, a lonely woman in Boston--go about their business with humor and resilience, dealing more in possibility than fact. In the widely anthologized and O. Henry Award-winning "I-80 Nebraska," Sayles perfectly renders the image of a pill-popping trucker who has become a legend of the road.
Synopsis:
A long overdue reissue of the Oscar-nominated filmmaker's classic, award-winning short story collection.
