Firmly rooted in the Tennessee of his youth--------
a prewar world, as Robert Penn Warren once
described it, “caught in a tangle oF modern
commercialism . . . and traditions gone to seed”—
Peter Taylor’s stories transform the triumphs and
tragedies oF his mid-century Southerners into
timeless, universal fiction in the manner of Chekhov
or Henry James. Technically adept, witty, anti
psychologically subtle, they are, in the estimation of
Joyce Carol Oates, “one oF the major works of our
literature.” Now, in his centennial year, Taylor joins
fellow twentieth-century masters William Faulkner,
Flannery O’Connor, and Eudora Welty in the
Library oF America with a two-volume edition oFhis
complete short fiction. Edited and introduced by
Ann Beattie, it brings together For the first time ail
fifty-nine oF the stories Taylor published in his
liFetime, presented in the order of their composition.
This first volume includes twenty-nine stories written
from 1938, when the author was twenty-one, to
1959 when he was Forty-two, a period when Taylor
wrote with special sensitivity about the domestic
reverberations of social changes besetting the Upper
South. As Beattie observes in her introduction,
tcTayIor never flinches when presenting encounters
between whites and blacks----whether affectionate,
indifferent, or unkind-----and dramatizes them
forthrightly” “Cookie” and “A Wife of Nashville” are
among several stories concerning a white employer
and a black servant, each by turn the other’s Friend,
protector, and exploiter. Other stories, such as the
Frequently anthologized “A Spinsters Talc” and
“The Fancy Woman,” are about women and the
sometimes extreme measures they must take in
order to negotiate a male-dominated world.
“Venus, Cupid, Folly and Time,” an unsettling
Southern Cothic tale of a brother and sister that
becomes an allegory of the perverse tenacity of class
illusions, remains one of Taylor’s most celebrated
works. Taylor considered it* along with “Aliss
Leonora When Last Seen,” a haunting meditation
on tile competing claims of history and community,
to t e among his finest stories. Also included in an
appendix are three precocious undergraduate efforts
that show the early emergence of Taylor’s singular
style and sensibility.
