A classy compendium of American poetry in a wonderful leather edition. A good, though conservative, selection of poets.
Sixty-three classic works by 63 masters of the short story are included in this diverse collection (some of the selections rarely included in an anthology). Writers include Mark Twain, Edgar Allan Poe, Washington Irving, Herman Melville, Henry James, William Faulkner, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Ernest Hemingway, Joyce Carol Oates, John Updike, John Cheever, Dorothy Parker, LeRoi Jones, Ann Beattie, Nancy Potter, James Baldwin, O. Henry, and many more. All the selections deliver to the reader a show more sense of the richness and variety of the short story in American literature. show less
Lobby book (one of two, the other a collection of Shakespeare) at the BW Kelly Inn in Minot, ND. Looks really good; fit to my taste.
