"I was reading this book during an intense few weeks of 12+ hours work days at work. It was his writing that reminded me of the reality of the world when I was too exhausted to experience it: the stories in his books are often devastating in the small and ordinary ways, in the small and ordinary lives - the raw feelings disguised in the carefree attitudes, the subtle and often unfulfilled hopes and wishes, the relentlessness in each turn of life, the insignificant and undramatic events. None earth shattering, but all devastatingly real. It is the nuanced realness and authentic rawness that touched my heart in the midst of hectic work life, that reminded me that I was living." - Goodreads Customer

"Fires" is the best introduction to the full range and humanity of Carver's writing. It contains four essays, including a moving memoir of his father's working life in the saw-mills of the Pacific Northwest, a tribute to his mentor John Gardner, and the title essay about the influences on his writing life; fifty poems, many of them not collected elsewhere; and, seven stories, including three from the early collection "Furious Seasons".
