The stories in "The Best American Humorous Short Stories" cover a wide range of humorous styles and themes. Some are classic examples of satire, such as Twain's "The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County," which pokes fun at the pretensions of the literary establishment. Others, like Ring Lardner's "Haircut," use dark humor to explore the darker side of human nature. Still others, such as Thurber's "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty," use absurdity and surrealism to create humorous situations.
"Synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
