River in Egypt | David Means

Detalii:

Faber Stories, a landmark series of individual volumes, presents masters of the short story form at work in a range of genres and styles.In his masterful story A River in Egypt, David Means paints a portrait of a moment. Cavanaugh and his young son are suspended; trapped in what a nurse calls the sweat chamber, where the boy will be tested for cystic fibrosis.Cavanaugh has brought distractions - spasmodic action figures, malformed toy trucks - but they do little to alter the frustration of the sick child screaming, or to alleviate the anxiety of the time spent waiting for some exactitude in the form of a diagnosis.Bringing together past, present and future in our ninetieth year, Faber Stories is a celebratory compendium of collectable work.
