520    Writing with equal insight about New York City, Hollywood,
       and the small-town Pennsylvania world where he grew up, 
       John O'Hara cultivated an unsentimental and often 
       unsparing realism, aiming, he said, "to record the way 
       people talked and thought and felt . . . with complete 
       honesty." Praised by contemporaries including Ernest 
       Hemingway and Dorothy Parker, he wrote about sex, drinking,
       and social class with a frankness ahead of its time. The 
       fiction he published in The New Yorker (more than any 
       other writer to this day) came to epitomize the kind of 
       short story featured in that magazine, and his impeccable 
       ear and skillful dialogue have influenced later writers 
       such as Raymond Carver. Bringing together sixty stories 
       written over four decades, [this is] the largest, most 
       comprehensive collection of O'Hara's stories ever 
       published.
