In the Miro District and Other Stories | 
pickWhile Peter Taylor‘s work has often been compared to Chekhov, several critics have viewed him as a Southern regional writer of memoir stories. I'm not sure where he'll ultimately land in the pantheon. While he wrote mostly from the perspective and heady pedestal of Southern genteel privilege, I think it can still be argued that his work was hardly conventional, as he remained a keen observer and critic of the very class in which he came from.
