A landmark new collection of stories from Richard Ford that showcases his brilliance, sensitivity, and trademark wit and candor!
In Sorry for Your Trouble, Pulitzer Prize winner and New York Times-bestselling author Richard Ford enacts a stunning meditation on memory, love and loss.
âDisplacedâ returns us to a young manâs Mississippi adolescence, and to a shocking encounter with a young Irish immigrant who recklessly tries to solace the narratorâs sorrow after his fatherâs death. âDriving Upâ follows an American womanâs late-in-life journey to Canada to bid good-bye to a lost love now facing the end of this life. âThe Run of Yourself,â a novella, sees a New Orleans lawyer navigating the difficulties of living beyond his Irish wifeâs death. And âNothing to Declareâ follows a man and a womanâs chance re-meeting in the New Orleans French Quarter, after twenty years, and their discovery of whatâs left of love for them.
Typically rich with Fordâs emotional lucidity and lyrical precision, Sorry for Your Trouble is a memorable collection from one of our greatest writers.
