商品描述内容简介Since 1998, McSweeney's "Quarterly Concern" has been emerging from various kitchens, attics and an old laundromat roughly four times a year - or definitely at least three. In those ten years, almost 100,000 stories have been submitted, usually in manila envelopes, mostly from unknown names living in unfamiliar corners. Approximately 400 of those stories were selected for publication. Eighteen of them appear here, wildly diverse in style and subject, from some of the finest writers of today and tomorrow. Several typos have been removed.作者简介Nick Hornby was educated at Cambridge and began his career as an English teacher before going on to write the internationally bestselling novels High Fidelity, About a Boy, How to be Good and A Long Way Down. He has also written three works of non-fiction: the hugely popular Fever Pitch, 31 Songs and The Complete Polysyllabic Spree. Eli Horowitz is managing editor of McSweeney's and publisher of The Believer. He has edited books and stories by writers including Michael Chabon, Denis Johnson, Joyce Carol Oates, Lawrence Weschler, Salvador Plascencia, Lemony Snicket and Chris Adrian. His design work has been honoured by I.D., Print and the American Institute of Graphic Arts.
