Kurzbeschreibung
This historically arranged anthology of short fiction by top American and international writers provides a comprehensive collection of both the classic stories as well as the most effective, relevant, and engaging modern and contemporary short stories. Through four distinct historical units, the author looks at the development of the short story as a genre. The historical introductions and visual spreads that begin each unit help instructors and students place the stories they read in a broader context. In addition to delineating the history and future of the short story, the anthology provides a comprehensive collection of classical and traditional stories and demonstrates the liveliness, flexibility, and dynamic nature of the genre. This dual focus grounds students in the tradition of the short story genre and gives them an appreciation for its contemporary context. Unlike many introductions to short fiction, this anthology includes a strong representation of newer works by international and American writers.

An excellent anthology for short story lovers.
7. November 2010
Format:Taschenbuch
This anthology brings you 130 of the greatest stories ever written, from the classic to contemporary. It is a tome of 1650 pages illustrating the evolution of short story from King James Bible to Alice Munro's "Floating Bridge" (2001). Just to give some examples my personal greats are below:
The Overcoat (1840) by Nikolai Gogol
The Cask of Amontillado (1846) by Edgar Alan Poe
Bartleby, the Scrivener (1853) by Herman Melville
The Necklace (1884) by Guy de Maupassant
The Death of Ivan Ilyich (1886) by Leo Tolstoy
An occurance at Owl Creek Bridge (1891) by Ambrose Bierce
The Yellow Wallpaper (1892) by Charlotte Perkins Gilman
The Lady with the Dog (1899) by Anton Chekhov
A Hunger Artist (1924) by Franz Kafka
Emma Zunz (1949) by Jorge Luis Borges
A&P (1961) by John Updike
Continuity of Parks (1967) by Julio Cortazar
A Very Old Man with Enormous Wings (1968) by Gabriel Garcia Marquez
There are special essays, helpful tools for reading such asan introductory chapter on approaching the short story and understanding the elements of fiction, a glossary of literary terms and a full novella - Henry James's Daisy Miller.
Highly recommended if you want a survey of the Short Story.

The Art of the Short Story
14. November 2011
Format:Taschenbuch|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
Would you think that anyone would be able to sit down and enjoy a textbook as pleasurable reading? I was quite surprised and delighted that this is what happened with THE ART OF THE SHORT STORY. That is the magic of good writing. The selections kept me absorbed and I was actually sorry to see the book end. If you want to spend time with some excellent writers, pick up a copy of this book. Don't you deserve it?
