- Economical in both size and price. For instructors who prefer not to burden their students with a huge, costly book that has many more stories than they are likely to read, this well-chosen collection of short stories is significantly smaller and less expensive than even "compact" editions of other introductory fiction anthologies. - 40 significant, classroom-proven stories. Drawing on surveys of the introductory fiction course that reveal which stories are the most frequently assigned and the most popular with students, the editor has assembled an enticing selection that includes traditional classics as well as recent favorites by important contemporary writers. - Unobtrusive but effective editorial features. The chronological arrangement of stories provides an historical framework for understanding the development of the form. Notes on the authors give students biographical contexts for understanding the writers, and a glossary provides a quick and concise reference to terms used in the discussion of fiction.
