Product: Let the Old Dead Make Room for the Young Dead: Faber Stories (English Edition)
Faber Stories, a landmark series of individual volumes, presents masters of the short story form at work in a range of genres and styles. 

A chance encounter leads a man to spend the afternoon with an older woman, now a widow, who escaped him fifteen years earlier. Neither of them doubts that the day will end in disgust, but for one intimate moment each finds a way to overcome mortality.

Written in 1969, before Milan Kundera was known to English-speaking readers, this story renders male and female characters painful equals, and prompted Philip Roth to admire its &apos;detached Chekhovian tenderness&apos;.
