Of the selections, 10 are said to be based on the author's real experiences. The title is taken from Shakespeare (and according to one of the stories, is used in four of his plays). Surprisingly, the collection has its own Wikipedia page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/And_Thereby_Hangs_a_Tale Below are listed the 15 stories, with my rankings.
