This vital and compelling collection of stories about work,
compiled by novelist and short-story writer Richard Ford,
explores tales of how we Americans are employed; how we find
work and leave it; how it excites, ennobles, occasionally
debilitates, but often defines us.

Collar range from contemporary Pulitzer Prize winners Edward
P. Jones and Jhumpa Lahiri to iconic short-story masters
Tobias Wolff, Annie Proulx, and Joyce Carol Oates, as well
as emerging writers such as Lewis Robinson. Encompassing a
wide range of contemporary literary styles, ages, ethnic
backgrounds, and geographical locations, Blue Collar, White
Collar, No Collar is a masterful, exhilarating, and timely
fictional exploration of work and its relationship to the
human spirit.
