  • Some of these "Classic" stories are not.

    Classic American Short Stories contains about 60% of good stories. It's too bad that you were not able to include Flannery O'Conner's work. The Fitzgerald choice is terrible. But I'm looking forward to leading the discussion of "Rappaccini's Daughter." I like the choice of "The Yellow Wallpaper". "The Jolly Corner" by James is written in the late style, so it wouldn't appeal to young readers. The used books are really clean and the large print is great for my mature group.

  • Excellent Book

    Great book, really easy and enjoyable read. Bought it for class but read the whole thing anyways I would recommend this book to anyone who needs something to read before bed or just something to get away from the TV because you get really absorbed into the storys
