Containing twenty classic short stories written by masters of the
form, this collection includes unforgettable tales from Maupassant,
Chekhov, Hardy and many more great writers. Some, like Saki's 'The
Open Window' or Scott Fitzgerald's 'The Diamond as Big as the
Ritz', are delightfully mischievous explorations of human foibles;
others, like Gogol's 'The Overcoat' or Poe's 'The Fall of the House
of Usher' ruminate more darkly upon the enigma of mortal existence.
No reader will want to be without these short masterpieces, which
come complete with brief biographies of each author.
