About this product
Product Information
In the 1970s and 1980s, before he earned national acclaim for his award-winning novels, Pete Dexter was a newspaper columnist. Every week, in a few hundred words, Dexter cut directly to the heart of the American character at a time of national turmoil and crucial change. With haunting urgency, his columns laid bare the violence, hypocrisy, and desperation he saw on the streets of Philadelphia and in the places he visited across the country. But he reveled, too, in the lighter side of his own life, sharing scenes with the indefatigable Mrs. Dexter, their young daughter, and a series of unforgettable creatures who strayed into their lives. No matter what caught Dexter's eye, it was illuminated by his dark, brilliant humor. Collected here for the first time are eighty-two of the best of those spellbinding, finely wrought pieces--with a new introduction by the author--assembled by Rob Fleder, editor of the bestselling Sports Illustrated 50th Anniversary Book . Paper Trails is searing, heart-breaking, and irresistibly funny, sometimes all at once. As Pete Hamill says in his foreword, these essays "are as good as it ever gets."

Reviews
[Dexter's pieces] read like finely honed short stories....Their spare, haunting scenes echo Hemingway, their insights Faulkner., Paper Trails will stir nostalgia for those who remember a time when newspapers prided themselves on cutting loose, colorful writers…, "Pete Dexter is a master story teller in all forms... This is the work of a great American writer." (Michael Connelly), With authority and a strange grace, Dexter has crafted a powerful true portrait of the underbelly of the American Dream.
