This is a concise yet comprehensive treatment of the American
short story that includes an historical overview of the topic as
well as discussion of notable American authors and individual
stories, from Benjamin Franklin's "The Speech of Miss
Polly Baker" in 1747 to "The Joy Luck Club".
* Includes a selection of writers chosen not only for their
contributions of individual stories but for bodies of work that
advanced the boundaries of short fiction, including Washington
Irving, Sarah Orne Jewett, Stephen Crane, Jamaica Kincaid, and Tim
O'Brien
* Addresses the ways in which American oral storytelling and
other narrative traditions were integral to the formation and
flourishing of the short story genre
* Written in accessible and engaging prose for students at all
levels by a renowned literary scholar to illuminate an important
genre that has received short shrift in scholarly literature of the
last century
* Includes a glossary defining the most common terms used in
literary history and in critical discussions of fiction, and a
bibliography of works for further study
