In giving John Mitchell's Alaska Stories the Pushcart Prize in 1984, Donald Barthelme said: "These pieces have the excitement of news from a place one is truly curious about. Spare, yet rich in freshly-observed detail, they remain in memory long after the book is closed". These two collections, the first containing five stories, the second seven, are separated by a span of three years.
