![]() - Ei tämänhetkisiä Keskustelu-viestiketjuja tästä kirjasta. 3.84 ( ![]() I but these "Best American Short Stories" collections every year along with a couple of other titles in the "Best American" series. Sometimes, the editor has made selections that I very much enjoy, and other times, not so much. This particular collection was one of the best, if not THE best I've been able to read. The editor selected stories which demonstrated not only wonderful writing skill, but also one that told riveting, or, at least, interesting stories. There were a couple I didn't like, so I skipped them. After all, that's what anthologies are for. But generally speaking, I was pleased to have read this book and found myself reading from one story to the next in much the same way I would a good novel. It was just too good to put down. Every year, there is a new editor for these collections. Future editors should work on learning and applying Jennifer Egan's secrets to their task. They worked extremely well for her.
