About the book

A penetrating gaze and creative fusion of life and literature - 'mutual plagiarism' as McCarthy called it - became the hallmark of her fiction, which the Library of America now presents in full for the first time in deluxe collector's edition, collecting The Oasis (1949), The Groves of Academe (1952) and A Charmed Life (1955). Also included are all eight of McCarthy's short stories, four from her collection Cast a Cold Eye (1950), and four collected here for the first time.
