A review by tarrowood
Cathedral by Raymond Carver

5.0

Carver is an artist at sketching a simple world, and then allowing his simple words and the simple objects to be given a beauty and magic that are on the verge of being incomprehensible — in a beautiful sense. This short story collection stunned and connected with me. I feel indebted to Carver’s art.
