520    From the Publisher: New Directions has long published poet
       William Carlos Williams' entire body of short fiction as 
       The Farmers' Daughters (1961). This new edition of The 
       Collected Stories of William Carlos Williams contains all 
       fifty-two stories combining the early collections The 
       Knife of the Times (1932), Life Along the Possaic (1938) 
       with the later collection Make Light of It (1950) and the 
       great long story, "The Farmers' Daughters" (1956). When 
       these stories first appeared, their vitality and immediacy
       shocked many readers, as did the blunt, idiosyncratic 
       speech of Williams' immigrant and working-class 
       characters. But the passage of time has silenced the 
       detractors, and what shines in the best of these stories 
       is the unflinching honesty and deep humanity of Williams' 
       portraits, burnished by the seeming artlessness which only
       the greatest masters command.
