Produktbeschreibung

Lee Smith is a "e;teller of tales for tale tellers to admire and envy . . . [and] a reader's dream"e; (Houston Chronicle).

Here, in Mrs. Darcy and the Blue-Eyed Stranger, Smith collects seven brand-new stories along with seven of her favorites from three earlier collections. The result? A book of dazzling richness. As the New York Times Book Review put it, "e;In al- most every one of [her stories] there is a moment of vision, or love, or unclothed wonder that transforms something plain into something transcendent."e;
