Biography

American short-story writer noted for his spare, unadorned tales about the wrenching lives of working-class people. - Merriam-Webster's Encyclopedia of Literaturemore

Collecting tips:

Carver's two most expensive books are his rare first book Near Klamath (1968), a pamphlet collection of poems published by the English Club of the college where he was then teaching, Sacramento State College; and his first commercially published book, a collection of short stories Will You Please Be Quiet, Please (1976), which is difficult to find in fine condition.
