| Book Description |
| In this fine book of stories, the PEN/Faulkner Award-winning author of This Boy's Life arrives at truths--about love, death, sex, and solitude--that are as invigorating as they are unsettling. "A wonderful collection . . . These stories seize your imagination."--The New York Times. |
| Amazon.com Review |
| Tobias Wolff has earned the deep respect of his many readers for direct, compelling stories marked by honesty and insight. The Night in Question is a collection of fifteen short works tied together by Wolff's upright style and unyielding interest in those moments when moral confusion crystallizes into clear, shining action and understanding. His characters, situations, and themes become familiar over time: children recognize the failings of their parents, men and women attempt to bridge the distance between themselves, and singular events shape everyday feelings into a new and more meaningful reality. |
