Journal Article
CHARLES BAXTER AND MQR
2015
Overview
Baxter's signature story in anthologies, and the title of his book of selected short fiction, is \"Gryphon,\" a first-rate account of a schoolboy's fascination with the fantastical monologues of a substitute teacher. Inventiveness in dialogue, sensitivity to the contours of thought and feeling between people rooted in a shared vocation, and more than anything, the shaping of sentences and paragraphs into elegant verbal objects redolent of human understanding (and occasionally of laugh-out-loud humor)-these are some of the admirable traits I first noticed in \"Harmony of the World\" and which impress me in all of Baxter's work.
