By
This review is from: Perrine's Story and Structure (Paperback)
The Perrine anthology is a superb book that has become a sort of classic, but unless you have to buy the new edition for a course, I'd recommend that you buy any of the earlier editions instead. You'll save quite a bit of money and you'll get exactly the same excellent introduction to the art of fiction -- as well as a lot of the same short stories. I know this is so because I've collected a number of editions over the years, and there is very little if any difference in the commentary from edition to edition. There is some variation in the choice of stories, of course -- but not that much.

Great Book, well structured,
This review is from: Perrine's Story and Structure (Paperback)
This is a great book. The chapters are interesting and focused on topics that are immediately applicable for new writers. Lots of literary examples are included, along with analysis questions designed to help the reader learn from them. I would definitely recommend it.
