My Steve Duffy Itinerary (Thus Far)

Steve Duffy (b. 1963) is a powerful and versatile master of the short story and novella forms. He excels in rich evocations of different historical periods. His novella "The Clay Party" is a matchless depiction of North American horror set during the nineteenth century westward expansion, in which settlers race to conquer before being conquered, all sides red in tooth and claw.


Below are my blog posts about several of Duffy's stories I have been fortunate enough to read:


The Night Comes On


Two stories: The Lion's Den & The Ice Beneath Us


No Passage Landward


The Clay Party


Certain Death for a Known Person


The Rag-and-Bone Men


The Marginals


X for Demetrious


The Vanishing Hitchhiker


Tragic Life Stories
