''Sylvia would have liked him vastly better without his gun; she could not understand why he killed the very birds he seemed to like so much.''A tale for our times, ''A White Heron'' follows Sylvia, a young woman who moves from the city to live with her grandmother in the Maine countryside. One day she is approached by a trophy hunter, who is keen to track down a rare and elusive bird so that he can shoot it and preserve it - but Sylvia finds herself enabling the bird''s escape. Painting beautiful portraits of American countryside, and tapping into deep debates around humans and their relationship with nature, this extraordinary short-story collection was years ahead of its time, and is ripe for rediscovery.
