Selected by the author herself from over three decades of work, \u003cem\u003eThe Red Convertible\u003c\/em\u003e is a veritable masterclass in the art of short fiction. In “Saint Marie,” a Native American girl leaves her reservation to enter the Sacred Heart Convent and is propelled into a life-and-death struggle with the diabolical Sister Leopolda. “Knives” features a homely butcher’s assistant, a devoted reader of love stories, who falls for a good-looking but predatory traveling salesman with devastating consequences for each of them. A passion for music in “Naked Woman Playing Chopin” proves more powerful than any experience of carnal or spiritual love; indeed, when Agnes DeWitt removes her clothing to enter the music of a particular composer, she sweeps all before her and transcends mortality and time itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA collection of breathtaking power and originality, \u003cem\u003eThe Red Convertible\u003c\/em\u003e cements Louise Erdich’s position in the pantheon of consummate, innovative writers of the American short story alongside such luminaries as Flannery O’Connor and Charles Baxter\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Harper Large Print","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47010780479743,"sku":"9780061720253","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9780061720253_s600x595.jpg?v=1779901285","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/products\/9780061720253","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
