Stories
by Arthur Miller
Throughout his career as one of the foremost playwrights of the twentieth century, Arthur Miller wrote a remarkable series of highly regarded short stories, pieces that reveal the same profound insight, humanism, and empathy that are the hallmarks of his great dramatic works. Presence is a posthumous gathering of Millers last published fiction, a group of stories that appeared in The New Yorker, Harpers, Esquire, and elsewhere.
"Miller's late work showcases inimitable writing and precipitous depths of longing." - PW.
