520 $aEach year this series brings together outstanding work in contemporary American short fiction. The 20 stories selected here are remarkable for their variety and quality. Several well-known writers are included--among them Joyce Carol Oates, Peter Matthiessen, and Joanne Greenberg. There are also writers in the early stages of their careers--Marilyn Sides, Bruce Flemming, and Devon Jersild. The editor observes that taken together "they show among them a richness of language, a yielding to the seductive powers of the imagination, and a willingness to explore and reinvigorate traditional forms and styles."
