More about the book
Raymond Carver's writing delves into the lives of individuals facing poverty and deprivation, marked by a haunting minimalism and subtle violence. His earlier works exemplify "dirty realism," characterized by their starkness and ambiguity. However, in later collections like Cathedral, Carver showcases a broader emotional range, revealing deeper connections with his characters and adopting a more expansive narrative style reminiscent of Chekhov. This evolution highlights his ability to blend detachment with empathy, enriching the landscape of American fiction.
