Synopsis
Winner of the 1990 Drue Heinz Literature Prize
The stories of Limbo River, many of them set within the interiors of work and the working class, create a chorus of dreams and dreamers--lives suspended in the place between and often grimly real possibilty.

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. Octavo, hardcover, as new, fine in near fine turquoise dj. Giftable. 142 pp. There's a scruffy thingness in Mr. Hillis's stories. He lingers with the contents of a welder's rumpus room, a farmer's kitchen, a teen-age girl's truck stop hangout, even the contents of a blue-collar working woman's shopping cart.Mr. Hillis gives us something that is all too rare in the modern short story characters with discernible desires that move them to action.Splendid work indeed.
