Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In his long life, Norman Maclean played many parts: fisherman, logger, firefighter, scholar, teacher. It was only after his biblical allotment of threescore years and ten, he liked to say, that he achieved fame as a writer. Though the 1976 collection A River Runs through It and Other Stories was the only book Maclean published in his lifetime, it was an unexpected success, and the family tragedy of the tide novella has proved to be one of the most enduring American stories. The posthumous publication in 1992 of Young Men and Fire only added to his reputation, reacquainting readers with the power of his spare, evocative prose." "Bringing together previously unpublished materials with incidental writings and selections from his two masterpieces, The Norman Maclean Reader is a substantial addition to Maclean's celebrated oeuvre, serving as the perfect introduction for readers new to Maclean, while offering longtime fans insight into his life and career."--BOOK JACKET.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With a foreword by John N. Maclean, son of Norman Maclean The Writings of Norman Maclean: Seeking Truth amid Tragedy provides the first critical reassessment of this celebrated author’s work in more than a decade. In his study, Timothy P. Schilling focuses on Maclean’s attempt, in A River Runs through It and Other Stories and Young Men and Fire, to come to grips with the tragic side of human existence. From the 1938 death of his brother Paul to the 1949 deaths of thirteen firefighters in Montana’s Mann Gulch wildfire, Maclean is driven by a desire to discover ultimate meaning—the truth—in the face of haunting tragedy. Through careful analysis of all of Maclean’s published works, Schilling highlights the audaciousness of Maclean’s quest to wrest free an answer from “the universe.” Ever open to scientific, literary, philosophical, and theological ways of viewing reality, Maclean found ambiguity, paradoxically, to be an essential tool for probing the truth. Beyond exploring Maclean’s use of this tool, Schilling breaks new ground by considering Maclean’s invocation of the Transcendentals in “A River Runs through It,” noting the sly homage Maclean pays to Izaak Walton, examining Maclean’s often-neglected “Other Stories,” assessing Robert Redford’s film adaptation of “A River Runs through It,” and providing the most thorough exploration of Young Men and Fire yet available. With this book, Schilling offers a current and complete analysis of Maclean—one of the most iconic figures in Western American literature.
