Beginning with a brief history and evolution of the short story
genre, alongside an overview of the key short story writers, and an
explanatory chapter of literary criticism, this book aims to give
readers insight into the works by canonical British, Irish, and
American authors, including Edgar Allan Poe, James Joyce, Flannery
O'Conner, and more. Applying close reading skills and critical
literary approaches to four selected short stories in English, this
work conducts comparative analyses to reveal the interrelationships
between the texts, the authors, the readers, and the sociocultural
contexts. Developed and tested in literature classes at The Open
University of Hong Kong over several semesters, this book addresses
key issues, topics and trends in the short story genre.
