Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Our Short Story Writers At the risk of supererogation I desire to state emphatically that twenty authors are only representative of our short story writers. I labor under no delusion that they are all we have of high rank, rather am I inclined to suspect that the first prospective reader will find his favorite story teller missing. Some of my own preferred stylists are conspicuously absent; and, although for the most part I have included those whom within prescribed limits I place first, I regretfully record the absentees. The short story is the literary medium that supersedes all others in America; one small volume is a container too exiguous for even its chief authors. According to the dominant principle working throughout the series of which this book is a unit, the writers discussed should be living or at least con temporary. If, by request of the publishers, Jack London and "O. Henry" were to be replevined from the famous dead, I was of the opinion that Richard Harding Davis should not be omitted. Henry James, from a literary point of view, would precede any of these three. For reasons later forthcoming, however, he is not among those present.
