Although the story or narrative is basically an old form, fiction as we know it today is considered to be a relatively new genre compared to poetry and drama. This book considered the basic elements that operate in a work of fiction. They include plot, point of view, theme, character, symbolism, irony, figurative language, atmosphere and setting, as well as technique and style. A number of short stories are presented which attempt to balance themes and settings and to include representative pieces by some of the most important writers of our times.
