Jean Stafford : A Study of the Short Fiction (9780805778076)
During her lifetime Jean Stafford (1915-1979) produced some 50 short stories, as well as novels, essays and other writings. Her short fiction evinces a sharp sense of place and irony; her characters typically lack roots, and chase after dreams; and although Stafford herself conceded no allegiance to the contemporary women's movement, her stories plainly centre on the female experience. Whether Children Are Bored on Sunday or Bad Characters, whether In the Zoo or The End of a Career, a Stafford short story often surprises, entertains and instructs. This text presents an analysis of the themes, techniques, relationships, and life circumstances shaping Stafford's short stories.
