Publisher Notes: Convict

  • "The Convict and Other Stories" is a collection of nine award-winning and beautifully composed stories, set in locales along the Gulf coasts of Louisiana and Texas, and battlefields around the world. These masterful stories are at once poignant portrayals of the rugged, conflicted Southern man as well as explorations of themes long familiar to Burke's readership: freedom and confinement, and betrayal and friendship. From a boy's first encounter with violence, hatred, and moral courage to an old man's recollections of bravery and adventure, these stories present a gallery of characters who come to grips with life's enduring questions. Burke combines the rugged with the poignant, the ambiguous with the crystal clear, with the practiced craft of a master.
