This new Library of America collection is the first new series the publisher is
issuing devoted to a living writer's literary career. Edited by Richard Ford
and Welty scholar, Michael Kreyling, these books are must-haves for any Welty devotee.
EUDORA WELTY: STORIES, ESSAYS, AND MEMOIR presents all of her collected short
stories. Her gift as a short story writer and chronicler of life in the South
evolves through The Wide Net and The Golden Apple (two of the collections included here).
The volume concludes with two stories from the 1960's, a selection of her essays, and her
wonderful memoir, ONE WRITER'S BEGINNINGS, which includes photographs from her childhood
and adult life.
