Shields, Carol: Dressing up for the Carnival, New York: Van Nostrand, 2000

Wraps. About Fine. First Edition. Advanced Reading Copy (ARC). ISBN:0670889210. Dressing Up for the Carnival is a witty performance in which Shields occasionally thumbs her nose at the very notion of the traditional short story (much as she tinkered with novelistic protocol in The Stone Diaries).
