First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. 3rd printing. 723pp. Bright, clean & tight copy, unread, in AS NEW condition. "The Best American Short Stories is the longest-running and best-selling series of short fiction in the country. For the centennial celebration of this beloved annual series, master of the form Lorrie Moore selects forty stories from the more than two thousand that were published in previous editions. Series editor Heidi Pitlor recounts behind-the-scenes anecdotes and examines, decade by decade, the trends captured over a hundred years. Together, the stories and commentary offer an extraordinary guided tour through a century of literature with what Moore calls 'all its wildnesses of character and voice.' [] These forty stories represent their eras but also stand the test of time. Here is Ernest Hemingway's first published story and a classic by William Faulkner, who admitted in his biographical note that he began to write 'as an aid to love-making.' Nancy Hale's story describes far-reaching echoes of the Holocaust; Tillie Olsen's story expresses the desperation of a single mother; James Baldwin depicts the bonds of brotherhood and music. Here is Raymond Carver's 'minimalism,' a term he disliked, and Grace Paley's 'secular Yiddishkeit.' Here are the varied styles of Donald Barthelme, Charles Baxter, and Jamaica Kincaid. From Junot Díaz to Mary Gaitskill, from ZZ Packer to Sherman Alexie, these writers and stories explore the different things it means to be American. [] Moore writes that the process of assembling these stories allowed her to look 'thrillingly not just at literary history but at actual history--the cries and chattering, silences and descriptions of a nation in flux.' 100 YEARS OF THE BEST AMERICAN SHORT STORIES is an invaluable testament, a retrospective of our country's ever-changing but continually compelling literary artistry." [jacket copy] Near-pristine & unread hardcover w/brilliant corners & crisp edges, a square & tight binding, wrapped in a Fine intact jacket (w/tiny ink-line on front, o/w unmarked).
