Edited by The New Yorkers fiction editor, Deborah Treisman, a celebratory selection from one hundred years of short stories in the magazine which has been the most influential and important showcase for the form and has launched dozens of stellar careers in fictionThere is simply no AZ like the alphabet of fiction writers who have appeared in the pages of The New Yorker in the last hundred years. The book boasts inarguable classics like Salingers A Perfect Day for Bananafish, Annie Proulxs Brokeback Mountain, and Shirley Jacksons The Lottery alongside stunners to be rediscovered. Some stories defined a moment or a nowlost world (Isaac Bashevis Singers The Cafeteria); others showed us a whole new way fiction could sound and feel (The Red Girl, by Jamaica Kincaid).With this vivid selection, Treisman showcases how our fiction has changed over time, and reminds us that past literary fashions continue to ripple outward in the fiction we love today. What does a Donald Barthelme mean to the craft of short fiction now? What will a Yiyun Li mean to the next generation of readers and writers? This exquisite tour of the form as practiced at its highest level will leap directly into the hearts of readers of all ages, all stripes, and is a beautiful tribute to the magazines influence on our literary culture over the last century.
