The Best American Series
People will keep reading fiction as long as it provides an experience of pleasure and insight that they can't find anywhere else," writes guest editor Jennifer Egan. The Best American Short Stories 2014 provides pleasurable and insightful fiction that compels, surprises, and engages. From a hospital s neonatal intensive care unit to the human face of American forces who have served in Afghanistan, from the rise and fall of an indie rocker to the fate of Madame Bovary s greyhound, the stories in this collection, according to Egan, explore the wider world at this specific point in time.
The Best American Short Stories 2014 includes Charles Baxter, Ann Beattie, T. C. Boyle, Joshua Ferris, Lauren Groff, Ruth Prawer Jhabvala, Joyce Carol Oates, Karen Russell, Laura van den Berg, and others.
