Raymond Carver (1938-1988) - in full Raymond Clevie Carver American short-story writer and poet, a major force in the revitalization of the short story in the 1980s. Carver's reputation continued to grow after his death at the age of fifty. Robert Altman's much praised film Short Cuts (1993) was based on several of Carver's stories. His short fiction is often placed in the realistic tradition of Stephen Crane and Ernest Hemingway and its post-modern version, called minimalism. Carver himself did not like the label, because it "smacks of smallness of vision and execution." "I love the swift leap of a good story, the excitement that often commences in the first sentence, the sense of beauty and mystery found in the best of them; and the fact - so crucially important to me back at the beginning and now still a consideration - that the story can be written and read in one sitting. (Like poems!) (from foreword in Where I'm Calling From Raymond Carver was born in Clatskanie, a mill town on the Columbia River in Oregon. His father, Clevie Carter, a sawmill worker, was an alcoholic. At home he used to tell him stories about his own hunting and fishing exploits, and about his grandfather, who had fought in the Civil War, for both sides. In 'Elephant', one of Carver's best stories, the narrator recalls his father nostalgically. On the other hand, 'Nobody Said Anything' tells about a young boy, who becomes the target of his father's frustration. Carver's mother, Ella Beatrice, worked as a waitress or as a retail clerk or else stayed home.

His stories finish but they never end. Deliberately, their resonance lingers on. Read a whole book and you'll realise that this effect is painstakingly reconstructed in all his stories. In some ways, all his stories are the same story (save for 'What's in Alaska' which is the funniest dope story ever written). They flew him into London to do interviews and he stayed at the oddly shaped Belgravia Sheraton. I met him here. He was fifteen minutes late. He apologised. This is what we talked about when we talked about Raymond Carver. "There were no books in the house when I grew up but I liked listening to my dad's stories and I wanted to write stories.

    On this day in 1938 Raymond Carver was born in Clatskanie, Oregon, the family moving three years later to Yakima, Washington. Carver's biographical essay, "My Father's Life," tells about his upbringing what his highly-acclaimed stories tell about others: the grind of poverty, the ruin of alcohol, the endless threat of breakdown and break-up, the resolve of those who keep going when their only sure direction is down. Raymond Carver's Two Lives
    At the age of forty, Raymond Carver was one of the most promising writers of his generation; he was also near ruin in every way from alcoholism. At fifty, and at the end of his "miraculous second life" the alcohol conquered, but now beaten by cancer Carver would count himself blessed, and many scholars would count him among the top few short story writers of modern literature.

    Contributing Editor: Paul Jones
    Classroom Issues and Strategies
    To bring Carver himself into the classroom, I recommend the Larry McCaffery and Sinda Gregory interview found in Raymond Carver: A Study of the Short Fiction or in Alive and Writing: Interviews with American Authors of the 1980s as sources for rich Carver quotes and his own insights into the stories and the writing process. For example, Carver cites Isaac Babel's dictum, "No iron can pierce the heart with such force as a period put in just the right place," as one of his own guiding principles.
    Major Themes, Historical Perspectives, and Personal Issues
    In many of Carver's stories, issues of loss and of alcoholism are a part of the larger issue, which is the isolation and terror of people when a total breakdown of survival systems is at hand. The near-inarticulateness of his characters in the face of this terror and loss is significant and has been a major point of contention among his critics. Some say that Carver's characters are too ordinary, underperceptive, and despairing to experience the philosophical questions of meaning into which they have been thrust. His defenders say that Carver characters demonstrate that people living marginal, routine lives can come close to experiencing insight and epiphany under pressure of intruding mysteries, such as the death of a loved one.

    (Raymond Clevie Carver) Search Authors Search Books About Raymond Carver Raymond Carver was born in Clatskanie, Oregon, in 1938. His father was a saw-mill worker and his mother was a waitress and clerk. He married early and for years writing had to come second to earning a living for his young family. Despite, small-press publication, it was not until Will You Please Be Quiet Please? appeared in 1976 that his work began to reach a wider audience. This was the year in which he gave up alcohol, which had contributed to the collapse of his marriage. In 1977 he met the writer Tess Gallagher, with whom he shared the last eleven years of his life. During this prolific period he wrote three collections of stories, What We Talk About When We Talk About Love, Cathedral and Elephant. Fires, a collection of essays, poems and stories, appeared in 1985, followed by three further collections of poetry. In 1988 he completed the poetry collection A New Path to the Waterfall.
