Editorial Reviews

Book Description

More that two-thirds of this volume is dedicated to the reproduction of 24 American short stories selected to be analyzed by students after having absorbed the material of the textbook section of the work. Before presenting the stories, Lostracco and Wilkerson (both of Austin Community College) offer standard advice on literature analysis as it pertains to short stories, covering the central idea, character, conflict, point of view, setting, language, and tone. Also included are seven sample analytical essays of short stories, only some of which are among the sample stories included. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com) --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

(REAL NAME)   
What is there to say? It is a collection of classic short stories used by English Composition Students. Better than most texts.
