Some of Tim's Stories
Some of Tim's Stories | S.E. Hinton
2 posts | 2 read | 2 to read
Celebrated novelist S.E. Hinton, author of THE OUTSIDERS, returned to the timeless themes of loss and family in SOME OF TIM'S STORIES, now available as an eBook for the first time. Terry and Mike are cousins who are as close as cousins can be – more like brothers, really. Growing up in happy times, they think their idyllic lives are invincible. But shared tragedies send both of their lives in two very different directions. Told through a series of inter-connected short stories by Tim, a sympathetic bartender who recognizes himself in the characters he speaks of. "Some of Tim's Stories is a compact set of vignettes...Hinton trims her prose close to the bone...and carves it into...sharp, concise observation[s]...[that are] admirably direct" —The New York Times

Some of Tim's Stories | S.E. Hinton

This collection is proof that S.E. Hinton keeps getting better with age. The writing is so tight and controlled, and the characters jump off the page. I devoured this and might have to do a reread of her novels soon.

One warning- the stories themselves only take up half the book, the rest is interviews. Granted, the interviews were FASCINATING and certainly worth reading.
