Description

Introducing a beautifully designed collection of twenty-one short stories from some of the best American writers over two hundred years of history. 'American literature and the short story might be said to have come of age at about the same time, and this, along with something in the bustling and energetic American temperament, might go some way towards explaining why the two go together as well as they do.' Twenty-one short stories from some of the best American writers over the last two hundred years provide a mesmerizing, multi-faceted portrait of a country, a people and the unique literature produced by this most exuberant of nations. Featuring short stories from classic American authors including Mark Twain, Katherine Anne Porter, F.

Scott Fitzgerald, Ernest Hemingway and many more.
