Eleven Kinds of Loneliness

First published in 1962, a year after «Revolutionary Road», this sublime collection of stories seems even more powerful today. Out of the lives of Manhattan office workers, a cab driver seeking immortality, frustrated would-be novelists, suburban men and their yearning, neglected women, Richard Yates creates a haunting mosaic of the 1950s, the era when the American dream was finally coming true — and just beginning to ring a little hollow.
