Richard Bausch
A proposito di questo titolo
In these twelve new stories, Richard Bausch explores the passions of men and women facing unexpected circumstances and the complications of modern life and love. In the novella “Donnaiolo,” for instance, the parents of a young divorcée who has returned from Italy and a failed marriage must deal with the completely different, and unappealing, person she has become. In “Isolation,” a happily married woman who has conceived an unexpected passion for another man learns, in lockdown during the pandemic, that this man—into whose life Bausch also gives us a window—has become ill with Covid. In a second novella, “Broken House,” an elderly Catholic man recalls his part in the destruction of an old farmhouse by altar boys who believed a monk had given them permission to destroy it—while also portraying his lifelong fascination with one of the boys, a gifted artist who has carried a secret for decades about the church they both wanted to serve as priests. And in still another story, “The Widow’s Tale,” a woman whose recently killed husband repeatedly visits her younger sister in dreams attends a séance.
Throughout The Fate of Others, Bausch once again exposes the virtues and flaws of his characters, reminding us, as the best stories do, of ourselves and people we know, and the lives we lead.
Recensioni della critica
"Bausch exhibits a mastery of cringe-inducing and sometimes heartbreaking miscommunication, as his characters talk to each other at cross-purposes. These insightful stories pack a punch."
—Publishers Weekly (starred review)
"Richly imagined, deeply felt, and filled with the sort of context that distinguishes [The Fate of Others] from minimalism. . . . Classic craftsmanship meets contemporary shell-shock." —Kirkus (starred review)
"Bausch's latest collection showcases the revered writer still at the sharpest of his craft after a long career." —Alta
"The Fate of Others is very much about what we have allowed our worlds to become by talking at others instead of to them. Such is the 'fate' of those caught in the crosshairs of life in this striking and prescient collection from Richard Bausch." —The Anniston Star
"[The Fate of Others] delivers the piecing character studies and musical prose that readers have come to expect. . . . The characters’ emotions are palpable and visceral. Throughout this strong collection, Bausch sensitively portrays the human condition in all its richly diverse manifestations." —Booklist
