Reviews
Praise for William Gay "Gay's great abilities in character building, richness of language and storytelling are on full display." -Charles Frazier, author of Varina "William Gay is richly gifted: a seemingly effortless storyteller...awriter of prose that's fiercely wrought, pungent in detail yet poetic inthe most welcome sense." -- The New York Times BookReview "Gay's style was fully formed: sinister and lovely, dark and atmospheric, blood-soaked and word-drunk. He fit squarely in the Southern Gothic tradition, but the languid, unrolling richness of his language made the stories and novels that followed feel fresh, a rebirth of a genre prone to pale imitations." - Wall Street Journal "The pleasure that Gay, a self-educated Vietnam veteran, takes from language is frequently a thing of beauty...A Dickensian feel for character makes his stories surge with life while the sharp dialogue is furious, funny and very southern. ....Gay, an instinctive original, had the spark of natural genius." - The Irish Times "William Gay could write a grocery list and make it sing and burn offthe pages in equal measure." - Heavy FeatherReview "William Gay is a flat-out monster." -Parnassus Recommended Reads "A writer of striking talent." -- Chicago Tribune "Writers like Flannery O'Connor or William Faulkner would welcome Gay as their peer for getting characters so entangled in the roots of a family tree." -- Star Tribune (Minneapolis)

    Amazing deal! The description said like new but the box and cards inside were still wrapped in plastic so it had never been used or opened. There was one little corner on the box that was not perfect but I’ve received brand new decks like that before just from shipping. I will definitely purchase from this seller again.
