Alice Munro Won the Nobel! Celebrate the Short Story With 10 Other Masters of the Form
Amanda Davis
Ah, the stories by Amanda Davis are wonderful and demonstrate great, great talent and empathy and so the story of Amanda Davis is all the more tragic, because she was killed in a plane crash just prior to her first book tour. But, maybe that’s all the more reason why you should pick up her short story collection, Circling the Drain, and relish the work she left for us all. “Faith, or Tips for the Successful Young Lady” is particularly powerful.
