Book Reviews of In the Bedroom
Book Review: A writer who can make a whole world out of each short story
Summary: 5 Stars
It says something that a spare, tight little story like 'Killers' could be the basis for an entire critically-acclaimed movie (In the Bedroom, starring Sissy Spacek and other fine actors and actresses). But Dubus's writing is simply that powerful and that descriptive. If you haven't seen the movie, by the way, the title story focuses on a family whose son is murdered by his lover's ex, setting into motion a plan for revenge. I've rarely had the pleasure of reading a writer who is able to say so much in so few pages.
