The Dream and Other Short Stories

Though some people think a good book must have some thing that makes people think deeply, I do think some times a book is goog just beacause you feel good when you read it. Actually, The Dream and Other Stories is one of them. The stories in this book is quite interesting, they cover from how a strange dream effect one's life to crazy birds attack people. I like the last one which is about birds attacking, it's so exciting that I can't stop reading. While another story which is about a man who wants to kill his aunt for her money, the ending is so unexpected. Well, I really like this book, hope you can like it as well!

This book is a collection of twentieth-century short stories,it cover different kinds of characters as well.but the main interest in all these stories lies in the way that different situations bring out the best or the worst in people,such as a jealous wife,a lonely lawer,a greedy young man and so on.Many of them have endings which are unusual or unexpected.
In a word,this book is deserve to be read,these short stories are amusing and shocking,they all show how people behave in real life.believe it or not,as soon as you read it,you like it at the first minute.

This book has wide variety of stories about humanity. Each story is self-contained. It tells me different oppions of the life. Also, it teaches many lessons about the life. It's unreal but profound implication. I think it's a good book to read!
