The Penguin Book of English Short Stories

Description

This volume contains sixteen examples of the English short story at its best: immediately captivating and hugely entertaining. Some stories are classics, such as James Joyce�s �The Dead�; others � like �Mr Loveday�s Little Outing� by Evelyn Waugh � are relatively unknown and a joy to discover. The Katherine Mansfield�s �The Voyage�, meanwhile, is a sensual narrative centring on a boat journey and set in her native New Zealand.
