Beskrivelse

'Lydia Peelle has given us a collection of stories so artfully constructed and deeply imagined they read like classics. It marks the beginning of what will surely be a long and beautiful career.' Ann PatchettInReasons for and Advantages of Breathing, Lydia Peelle brings together eightbrilliant storiestwo of which won Pushcart Prizes and one of which won an O. Henry Prizethat peer straight into the human heart. In startling and original prose, she examines lives derailed by the loss of a vital connection to the land and to the natural world of which they are a part.Reasons for and Advantages of Breathingconveys an almost Faulknerian ache for the pre-modern South, for a landscape and a way of life lost to the ravages of money and technology.
