Raymond Carver They Re Not Your Husband Pdf Free Rating: 6,0/10 1081 reviews
Raymond Carver (1938 to 1988, Oregon, USA) is on a lot of top ten short story writer of all times lists. I have read and posted on five of his stories. I recognize he has a tremendous talent and can do wonders with a small amount of material. I was fully convinced of his brilliance when I read his story on the last day in the life of Anton Chekhov,. (By a cosmic coincidence it was Carver's last story.) I am put off a bit by the people in Carver's stories. I know it is not a good reading habit to judge stories and novels on how the people in the stories relate to those in your world but I am a bit turned off by the prevalence of alcoholics, drug users, wife abusers and just seemingly brutally ignorant people in his stories.
If this shows a lack of artistic detachment on my part or a lack of sympathy for the people in most of his stories, then so be it. It does not mean I do not appreciate his genius and I will keep reading his stories. 'They're Not Your Husband' will make a lot of people cringe at the brutal seemingly valueless lives depicted in the story. The husband in the story has to be a nightmare figure for every married woman concerned her charms have faded. The wife works as a waitress in a diner. Basically that means a restaurant with a counter, a simple place.
The husband is sitting at the counter, hoping to get a free meal. 
Two men come in and scrutinize his wife from behind as she bends over. Not knowing who the man is, they make a number of really rude remarks about her body, concluding with a suggestion that they guess she can still attract men because 'some like them fat'.
The husband is really upset by this. When he and the wife are going to bed, he basically tells her she needs to lose some weight and tells her to stand naked in front of the mirror. OK it takes either an idiot or a total uncaring brute to say something like this to his wife, perhaps particularly when she is the only one working in the family. He goads her onto a diet and when she begins to lose weight but looks haggard and feels week her co-workers express concern over her health. She tells her husband and he says to her ' They're Not Your Husband'. After she has lost nine pounds or so, the husband is back in the diner. He is sitting next to a man he does not know and he tries to draw the man into a conversation about the body of his wife.
This is male bonding at its worse. This is a very well done story. Carver is considered a minimalist (he would have been great on Twitter!). He does do a whole lot in this story. It appeared in his collection of stories, What We Talk About When We Talk About Love.

Raymond Carver wrote a prosy kind of poem. Which shouldn’t surprise us since prose is what his reputation mainly rests on.
He penned poems, it seems, when his short-story muscles needed a rest. And, like Walt Whitman, he did it almost entirely in free verse.
A typical Carver poem consists of sentences and phrases arranged on the page to resemble poetry, but don’t bother trying to scan them. Some have found this off-putting. Fred Chappell, writing in the Kenyon Review, once said of a collection of Carver’s verse, “It is difficult to think of these productions as poems; they stand in relation to poetry rather as iron ore does to a Giacometti sculpture.” That’s mean, but it’s easy enough to see where Chappell is coming from. Still, though, Carver’s poetry is not without interest. His best poems, and there are a number of pretty good ones, represent a triumph of content over technique, of feeling over method.
