Description

The Fall 1992 issue of Ploughshares, guest edited by Tobias Wolff. Ploughshares, a journal of new writing, is guest edited serially by prominent writers who explore different and personal visions, aesthetics, and literary circles.

Acclaimed memoirist and novelist Tobias Wolff (This Boy's Life, Old School, In the Garden of North American Martyrs) compiles this fiction issue of Ploughshares. In Wolff's introduction to the issue, he says, "It goes without saying that another editor would have put together, from the same available manuscripts, a different issue. I can only hope, Dear Reader (Perfect Judge, Angel of Mercy, Shadow of Death), that your excitements coincide sufficiently with mine to allow you some of the pleasure and wonder I have felt, reading the pages to come." Featuring work from Dan Chaon, Andre Dubus, Stuart Dybek, Susan Power, Mona Simpson, Jessica Treadway, and nonfiction by Susan Bergman.
