The Top 10 Short Stories - The 1920's - The Americans: The top ten short stories written in the 1920s by authors from America
Acerca de este audiolibro
In this series we try to offer up tried and trusted ‘Top Tens’ across many different themes and authors. But any anthology will immediately throw up the questions – Why that story? Why that author?
The theme itself will form the boundaries for our stories which range from well-known classics, newly told, to stories that modern times have overlooked but perfectly exemplify the theme. Throughout the volume our authors whether of instant recognition or new to you are all leviathans of literature.
Some you may disagree with but they will get you thinking; about our choices and about those you would have made. If this volume takes you on a path to discover more of these miniature masterpieces then we have all gained something.
In this volume the Jazz Age blossoms with an exuberance of spirit and panache. Life is for now, the future seems so very far away. Our American authors bring the decade to life with stories that perhaps could only come to pass in this decade of the United States.
