Firmly rooted in the Tennessee of his youth------
a prewar world, as Robert Penn Warren once
described it, Ucauglit 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, and
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 Kudora Welty in the
1 library of America with a two-volume edition of his
complete short fiction. Kdited and introduced by
Ann Heattie, it brings together for the first time all
fifty-nine of the stories Taylor published in his
lifetime, presented in the order of their composition.
This second volume presents thirty stories written
from i960, when the author was forty-three, to
1992^ w hen he was seventy-five. They include many
of his most ambitious works, including rtDean of
Men,” a monologue delivered by a middle-aged
father to his long-haired son about the limits of
idealism. “In the Miro District,” which concerns the
contentious relationship of an ascetic grandfather
and his libertine grandson, is a parable of the Old
South’s enduring persistence in the New “The Old
Forest, one of Taylor’s most celebrated works, is
the story of a young man who jeopardises his
impending marriage by consorting with a girl
deemed beneath his station, precipitating, in Taylor’s
words, “a struggle of women for power among
themselves. Here too are all five of Taylor’s re-
markable story-poems, narratives in free verse that
demonstrate that great fiction is, at its highest pitch,
a line-by-line, image-by-image high-wire act. Two
of the stories, “A Cheerful Disposition and “T. he
Mcgalopolitans, arc collected here for the first time.
