Ann Charters has an acute sense of which stories work most effectively in the classroom and knows that writers, not editors, have the most interesting and useful things to say about the making and the meaning of fiction. For those who want a smaller, less expensive anthology, the compact edition of The Story and Its Writer is the most comprehensive, diverse the bestselling introduction to fiction available, notable for its student appeal as well as its quality and range. To complement the stories, Charters includes her lasting innovation: an array of the writers own commentaries on the craft and traditions of fiction. For indepth, illustrated studies of particular writers, her Casebooks provide unparalleled opportunities for discussion and writing.For a shorter, more affordable option, the compact edition offers all the editorial features of the full edition with about half the stories and commentaries.

I was excited to receive 'The Story and Its Writer', but it arrived with a damaged cover. The content looks great, but I was disappointed with the condition it came in. I hope the next one is better packaged!

Great intro to short fiction!
I bought 'The Story and Its Writer' for my creative writing class, and it’s been an incredible resource. The selection of short stories is diverse and really shows different writing styles. The introductions to each author are informative and helpful!

Solid but not groundbreaking
This book is a decent introduction to short fiction. I appreciated the variety of stories included but felt some selections were a bit outdated. It’s still a good read if you’re new to the genre, just don’t expect the latest trends.
