Great list of writers.
Wow, what a great line up of writers. These are the best around. Some of the stories are really great - Russel Bank's story just knocked me out - and all are definitely worth checking out.

A Sad state of affairs
If these are the top short story authors in the United States and Canada, we are in bad shape. Most of these stories simply aren't very interesting--I found the characters to be generally unsympathetic losers, and very little actually happens in most of the stories.

Great book on a touchy subject. It's a must read.,

McNally has compiled a wide array of stories that tackles a difficult subject matter. To be human means that you have committed, been the victim of, or, at the very least, considered adultery. It is nice to read what some great authors have to say on the subject. I could not recommend this book more highly. Enjoy.

Most of these stories simply aren't very interesting--I found the characters to be generally unsympathetic losers, and very little actually happens in most of the stories.One story, by Margaret Atwood, has some punch. Why don't you just lean against the shelf in the bookstore and read that one, then put the book back? You'll save some money that way, and you won't miss a thing. |
