The Collected Stories: Sheldon Lee Compton - Paperback

by Sheldon Lee Compton (Author)

Cowboy Jamboree Press is proud to present the entire short story oeuvre of the great Sheldon Lee Compton in one volume. Herein are all of Compton's previously published collections--The Same Terrible Storm, Where Alligators Sleep, Absolute Invention, and Sway--along with eleven previously uncollected gems. Get lost in the Appalachian gothic fiction of one of the best story writers today, the man David Joy has called "the definition of what Faulkner meant when he described the closeness between the short story writer and the poet."

"Sheldon Lee Compton is a hillbilly Bukowski, one of the grittiest writers to come down the pike since Larry Brown." Donald Ray Pollock, author of Knockemstiff and The Devil All the Time
