Publisher Description: Honored in England and Ireland as the founder of realistic fiction, George Moore was a prolific short story writer whose heirs are James Joyce, Frank O'Connor, and Sean O'Faolain. In Minor Keys brings together the best of the stories Moore did not re-publish in books. He reveals nuances of human relations and handles ironies elegantly in these fourteen stories. The introduction discusses sources and possible influences on the histories of the stories and assesses the stories, their context, and their writer. |
