Description
The Modern Short Story offers critical introductions to various literary topics and genres. A long-overdue attempt to revive interest in this often-neglected form, it explores short stories written primarily in English, mainly from Britain and America.
Divided into three sections, the book covers 19th-century short stories, modernism and its influence on the genre, and contemporary and post-modern works. This collection provides a comprehensive overview of the modern short story, shedding light on its development and significance.
