Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. 278 pages. For twenty years now, Frederick Busch has been a relentless chronicler of the human heart. Except for an occasional foray abroad, he has tended to set his fi ction in a physical territory--the Northeast, upstate New York especially--which he has given literary shape. With the capaciousness of a Dickens and the contro l of a Hemingway, Busch's novels have come in steady counterpoint, raising and a nswering by turns insistent questions that worry even the plainest of domestic l ives. In this his fifth book of stories, the Absent Friends of the title are the lost characters the author has so compassionately detailed, who long to recover their absent selves. But they are also, as Richard Bausch comments in The Phila delphia Inquirer, friends we have failed, or who have failed us; it is the emoti onal cost of that estrangement that interests Frederick Busch.
