Proposals for Story Five
“.... I was in Dublin in November and Fiona told me that before I left I should go to The Winding Stair bookshop. So I did, and I bought a book of interviews with Wallace Stegner, in which he says of Tillie Olsen (and I’m paraphrasing here)... she only wrote five short stories in her whole life, but those five stories carried her farther than a whole string of camels...” With no colleagues to test her ideas against, Stegner maintained, Olsen studied in the public library, becoming a “bug house philosopher.”
