Introduction by George Saunders. 395pp. Bright, clean & tight copy, unread, in As New condition (w/slight corner bump, o/w unmarked). "'A writer like Paley,' writes George Saunders, 'comes along and brightens language up again, takes it aside and gives it a pep talk, sends it back renewed, so it can do its job, which is to wake us up.' Best known for her inimitable short stories, Grace Paley was also an enormously talented essayist and poet, as well as a fierce activist. She was a tireless member of the antiwar movement, the civil rights movement, the tenants' rights movement, the anti-nuclear-power movement, and the Women's Pentagon Action, among other causes, and proved herself to be a passionate citizen of each of her communities--New York City and rural Vermont. A GRACE PALEY READER compiles a selection of Paley's writing across genres, showcasing her breadth of work as well as her extraordinary insight and brilliant economy of words." [jacket copy] "Paley's work has an honesty and guilelessness about it, qualities made all the more luminous by an artfully intricate prose style full of surprises. . . Paley is one of the few who write about people who actually believe in things passionately. . . and say so. She demonstrates how history and politics can move and change--and victimize--people, and makes us care about her characters even if we disagree with them."--Robert R. Harris, The New York Times Book Review. "Grace Paley makes me weep and laugh--and admire. She is that rare kind of writer, a natural, with a voice like no one else's: funny, sad, lean, modest, energetic, acute."--Susan Sontag. Near-pristine, unread hardcover w/brilliant corners (but that bump) & crisp edges, a square & tight binding, wrapped in a bright-as-new jacket, quite presentable.…
