Borrowed Hearts: New and Selected Stories

Rick DeMarinis stands alongside Raymond Carver, James Welch, and Jim Harrison as a major voice of the American West. Known for his dark, sardonic, and often hilarious writing, DeMarinis is a consummate craftsman; he can make disparate voices his own, which allows readers to establish a disarming intimacy with his characters. This collection of DeMarinis's short stories includes 11 new works and 21 stories from three previous critically acclaimed books.
