The New York stories

O'Hara, John, 1905-19702018
Books, Manuscripts
These 32 stories inhabit the technicolor vernaculars of taxi drivers, barbers, paper pushers and society matrons. John O'Hara remains the great chronicler of American society, and nowhere are his powers more evident than in his portraits of New York's so-called Golden Age. Unsparingly observed, brilliantly cutting and always on the edge of tragic epiphany, the stories collected here are among O'Hara's finest work, and show why he still stands as the most-published short story writer in the history of the New Yorker.
