A new collection of short fiction—including the first chapter of an unfinished novel—is coming from the late William Styron, according to InkWell Management agent Michael Carlisle.

Mr. Carlisle, one of the founding partners of InkWell and a close childhood friend of Styron's kids, said the collection, like the rest of Styron's work, will be published by Random House and overseen by the legendary editor Bob Loomis.  

Mr. Carlisle said the stories in the new collection-three of which have been previously published, but only in literary magazines-are all in some way about soldiers returning home from war.  read more »
