Product Description

In 1928, just after he published his first novel, Morley Callaghan asked his editor, "Do you think The New Yorker would be a good magazine for my stories? They have never printed fiction before, but are going to start with that story of mine called ‘An Escapade.’” Through these short stories from Callaghan—whom Ernest Hemingway compared to James Joyce—readers will realize just how good a fit is was.

Review

"If there is a better story writer in the world, we don't know where he is."  —The New York Times

About the Author
Born in Toronto in 1903, Morley Callaghan graduated from the University of Toronto and Osgoode Hall. He was called to the bar in 1928 but he never practiced law. Although he travelled widely, and lived in Paris for some time during the golden years of Hemingway and Fitzgerald, Callaghan spent most of his life in Toronto producing fifteen novels, a memoir and streams of short stories. He was nominated for the Nobel Prize in Literature and in Canada received a host of honours, including the Governor General’s Award for Fiction. He died in 1990.
