\u003cP\u003eA leading figure in modern southern literature, described by \u003cI\u003eNewsweek\u003c/I\u003e as \"one of the best American storytellers,\" Peter Taylor secured a national following through his long relationship with the \u003cI\u003eNew Yorker\u003c/I\u003e and his widely read volumes from the 1980s, \u003cI\u003eThe Old Forest and Other Stories\u003c/I\u003e and \u003cI\u003eA Summons to Memphis\u003c/I\u003e. The Pulitzer Prize-winning author's portrayals of the battles of strong-willed fathers and mothers with their equally strong-willed sons are at the center of his achievement in fiction.\u003c/P\u003e\u003cP\u003eDavid Robinson presents Taylor as a writer deeply concerned with the interworkings of family relationships, and emphasizes his role as chronicler of the shifts in southern culture in this century. \u003cI\u003eWorld of Relations\u003c/I\u003e provides an important critical assessment of the work of one of the South's greatest writers, and includes the first extensive critical discussion of Taylor's last two works, \u003cI\u003eThe Oracle of Stoneleigh Court\u003c/I\u003e (1993) and \u003cI\u003eIn the Tennessee Country\u003c/I\u003e (1994).\u003c/P\u003e |
