In Just Before Dark, Harrison’s essays and articles have been selected from twenty-five years of work, from venues as diverse as Playboy, The Nation, Outside, and the American Poetry Review. They explore the passions and concerns of a classic American writerfrom ice fishing to bar pool, nouvelle cuisine and night walkswith keen insight and great humanity. It is an exceptional reminder of why Harrison was one of our most cherished and important writers.
