Lydia Davis is an American writer known for her extremely short stories that rarely last more than a page or three and yet are brilliantly witty and are characterised by vivid observations of mostly mundane and routine occurrences.
The Collected Stories of Lydia Davis is the complete collection of short stories from the 2013 Man Booker Prize International winner. Praised by The New Yorker as “ one of the great, strange American literary contributions” and by the Los Angeles Times Book Review as “one of the quiet giants . . . of American fiction”.
Includes a 2014 article Long Story Short, Lydia Davis’s radical fiction, by Dana Goodyear, torn out of The New Yorker magazine.
