Description: You Are Not a Stranger Here: Stories - By Adam Haslett - Signed First Anchor Book Edition. National Book Award Finalist. 2002. No wear or tear, but it was read. The book you see in the pictures is the one you'll get. Feel free to ask questions and thanks for looking! Note: We'll be moving in three months - any offer will be seriously considered! 'Most of the short stories in Adam Haslett’s 2002 debut collection, You Are Not a Stranger Here, fall considerably short of the power in the opening story, “Notes to my Biographer,” and the closing story, “The Volunteer.” But those two deft and deeply moving stories are more than worth the price of admission. The placement of the play Our Town in “The Volunteer” has to be one of the most delicious ironies ever.Of the weaker stories, “The Beginnings of Grief” is perhaps the weakest, coming off like one of the trite erotic fantasies you would come across routinely in the now defunct magazine Christopher Street.Only five of the collection’s nine stories had been published previously in magazines.'
