by Stephen Dixon (Author)

At once deeply personal and comically exuberant, Goodbye to Goodbye is the first major collection of Stephen Dixon's stories since 1994, spanning the author's remarkable career from his very first published story to never-before-published works. The stories reflect the development of a unique and ever-evolving style, from earlier, more traditional stories; to pioneering experiments with dialogue, point of view, and sentence structure; to what became his trademark: obsessively self-revising texts that reflect experience as if through a funhouse mirror, paradoxically both truly felt and narratively twisted. As J. Robert Lennon writes in his introduction, this work "doesn't efface its artificiality; it doesn't want its reader, or its author, to disappear."
