| | Resurrection Blues |
 | | Richard Yates (1926-1992) was one of the most spectacular literary voices our country has produced, yet most of his books were out of print when he died. | | | Yates understood his characters inside and out because he understood people; no American author has known himself — and the people around him — better. | | | The Collected Stories brings together Yates’ two volumes of short fiction, Eleven Kinds of Loneliness (1962) and Liars in Love (1981), along with a number of uncollected and unpublished works. |

| | Review A Tragic Honesty: The Life and Work of Richard Yates by Blake Bailey |
| | A Tragic Honesty is unflinching in its survey of Yates' monumental self-destructiveness -- a private and all-too-visible public hell. | | | He could be a courtly, good-humored gentleman of grace and erudition, a peerless -- at times -- teacher of writing, and not without a sense of humor. | | | A Tragic Honesty: The Life and Work of Richard Yates by Blake Bailey |

| | The Austin Chronicle Books: Readings |
| | The real spell that Yates casts is his ability, through clear, deceptively simple prose, to put you through the experience of being utterly alone. | | | Reading a Yates story is like having to face up to all the times you've betrayed your best self. | | | Through a kind of pathetic earnestness, Yates creates a form of bleak comedy that later shows up in the works of Raymond Carver and Richard Ford. |

| | Yates makes the reader squirm with embarrassment for his characters. | | | Yates does not play favorites; the world, according to his vision, grinds all his characters down alike, and–as in Kafka–the more they struggle, the more painfully they fail. | | | is Richard Yates’s gentlest book, the one in which he shows the most overt love and pity for his people. |

| | Yates talked about his daughter, of whom he was very proud: she was also a novelist. | | | He told me that he was able to write so knowledgeably about the two sisters because it was mainly autobiographical--he was one of the sisters. | | | I told him how moved I was by certain parts of his most recent book, Young Hearts Crying. |

| | Grim reaper: Richard Yates's compassionate eye |
| | Yates had his own way of resisting the short story's shackles. | | | Early stories like "The Best of Everything" (about an office girl on the eve of her wedding day) and "No Pain Whatsoever" (about a wife's visit to her husband in the tuberculosis ward) are perfectly constructed, and so are their ironies. | | | (In his introduction to the stories, Richard Russo talks about the role of "luck" in Yates's tales.) And the loneliness of these characters is easy to feel. |

| | But after all those "slick" observations are exhausted, the facts remain: he wrote some of the best fiction of his generation; it continues to give pleasure to all those readers who are fortunate enough to discover it. | | | He hadn't published a book in six years, and none of his books is in print in Britain. | | | He was wearing a thin, semi-translucent green tube attached to his nostrils; the tube leashed him to a "Companion" brand oxygen condenser which he kept hidden away in the bedroom. |

| | As Yates himself insisted, "All fiction is filled with technique." In the end, it seems almost beside the point whether his books were based on "real" people and events; his work endures because he was able to turn his unique experiences into universally recognisable human stories. | | | Bailey relates the "truth" behind Yates's inventions, revealing, for example, that the author barely bothered to change the names of the people on whom he based his characters. | | | Bailey (whose previous book was The Sixties) tracked down everyone from Yates's elementary school chums to women with whom he flirted at cocktail parties. |

| | To many, he was (and remains) an artistic pioneer, willing to venture again and again into the most dangerously wretched parts of his soul in order to come up with the beautiful, melancholy prose that informs such works as The Easter Parade and Eleven Kinds of Loneliness. | | | This was partly for fairly obvious reasons: women liked to mother him; men found him an ideal drinking companion. | | | While his readings of Yates's work range from inspired to flat-footed, his evocation of the gritty matter of his life is consistently penetrating. |

| | Here are two recent statements about literary realism, statements so typical of their age that a realist novelist would have been proud to have imagined them into life. | | | The defence of this idea of mimesis should not harden into a narrow aesthetic, for it ought to be large enough to connect Shakespeare's dramatic mimesis, say, with, Dickens's novelistic mimesis, or Dostoevsky's melodramatic mimesis with Muriel Spark's satiric mimesis, or Pushkin's poetic mimesis with Platonov's lyrical mimesis. | | | The realist writer, that free servant of life, is one who must always be acting as if life were a category beyond anything the novel had yet grasped; as if life itself were always on the verge of becoming conventional. |

| | As Blake Bailey notes in "A Tragic Honesty,' his acclaimed biography of novelist Richard Yates, "People rarely say what they mean, and good dialogue is a matter of catching characters in the very act of giving themselves away.' Murphy's characters say, deadeningly, precisely what they mean, as underscored by the cast's frequently overwrought performances. | | | This is best evidenced in the drearily ongoing arguments between Sean and his wife, who dissect their failings in a manner far too on-point. | | | Clearly, the series' main intent is to get a rise out of viewers -- witness the climactic scene in which a liposuction procedure results in guts spraying all about the operating room. |

| | But the novelists of that generation were not merely anti-Eisenhower or anti-Nixon--they were pro-Kennedy. | | | Yates won the job--according to his biographer, Blake Bailey--by imagining Kennedy as a fictional character, "an attractive young man seductively persuading a group of female admirers to support the cause of civil rights." The Kennedy years were supremely suited to fiction at its most self-regarding. | | | The novelist of the early 20th century was far more likely to be concerned with reproducing the experience of the common man--or rallying on behalf of Sacco and Vanzetti--than forming committees in support of, say, Warren Harding or James B. Cox. |
