A posthumous and definitive collection of new and selected stories by "virtuoso of the short story" (Esquire) and National Book Award finalist Thom Jones. This scorching collection from award-winning author Thom Jones features his best new short fiction alongside a selection of outstanding stories from three previous books. Jones's stories are full of high-octane, prose-drunk entertainment. His characters are grifters and drifters, rogues and ne'er-do-wells, would-be do-gooders whose human frailties usually get the better of them. Some are lovable, others are not, but each has an indelible and irresistible voice. They include Vietnam soldiers, amateur boxers, devoted doctors, strung-out advertising writers, pill poppers and veterans of the psych ward, and an unforgettable adolescent DJ radio host, among others. The stories here are excursions into a unique world that veers between abject desperation and fleeting transcendence. Perhaps no other writer in recent memory could encapsulate in such short spaces the profound and the devastating, the poignant and the hallucinatory, with such an exquisite balance of darkness and light. Jones's fiction reveals again and again the resilience and grace of characters who refuse to succumb. In stories that can at once delight us with their wicked humor and sting us with their affecting pathos, Night Train perfectly captures the essence of this iconic American master, showcasing in a single collection the breadth of power of his inimitable fiction.Binding Type: Paperback

Kids like them
Size: 2 Pound
These are a good buy for a classroom goody jar. They are peanut free and gluten free. Although the Amazon bag did say processed in a factory that handles peanuts.

Flavor distribution could be better
Size: 2 Pound
I receive Spravato treatments, and the taste is nasty. Fruit candy is a good way to get rid of it. I discovered that the tropical fruit punch flavor was best at it. Unfortunately, the clinic switched to a different kind of suckers and kept them poorly stocked, so I bought my own. Two pounds of suckers and not a single tropical fruit punch! Lots of mango and orange, which also work well, but in two pounds, you'd think there'd be some of every flavor.
