Works by Mary Robison
(b. 1949)
| 1979 | Days. Robison's first story collection treating the mundane lives of unexceptional characters in a stripped-down, deadpan style connects her with the so-called minimalist school of writers, which includes Ann Beattie and Raymond Carver. It would be followed by two collections--An Amateur's Guide to the Night (1983) and Believe Them (1988)--and the novels Oh! (1981) and Subtraction (1991). Born in Washington, D.C., Robison was a student of writer John Barth at Johns Hopkins. |
