Reprise collects three volumes of short stories, bringing together half a century of Delbanco’s writing for the first time.Nicholas Delbanco has been many things: a student of John Updike; a teacher of noteworthy authors like Bret Easton Ellis, Andrea Barrett, and Jesmyn Ward; and even, for a while, the next-door neighbor of James Baldwin. Across a career spanning nearly six decades, Delbanco has published more than thirty books of fiction and nonfiction and edited a dozen more.  He is the recipient of numerous awards. The stories collected here represent a sort of retrospective, capturing the restless and boundlessly intelligent Nicholas Delbanco at key moments in his artistic life.With painterly eye for detail and texture, Reprise offers readers an invitation to glimpse American literature at its most elegant and graceful.
