Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everyone knows that Bertolt Brecht was one of the great 20th-century innovators in theatre - the literary-theatrical equivalent of a Picasso or Stravinsky - and Germany's greatest poet of the last century, but the playwright was also a dazzling writer of stories. Storytelling permeated his art as a dramatist; fundamentally in his plays he was a storyteller. This volume collects the complete short stories written by Brecht, including the prize-winning 'The Monster', and the fragmentary memoir ghost-written by Brecht, 'Life Story of the boxer Samson-Körner'. Brecht scholar Marc Silberman provides an introduction and editorial notes. Fans of Brecht will find in the 37 stories assembled here the same directness, lack of affectation, and wry humour that characterise his plays. Every lover of short stories will discover an unexpected trove of pleasure in this "mine for short-story addicts" (Observer).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the age of nineteen, I left college at New York University after deciding that I did not want to be an electrical engineer and that I would not make the varsity basketball team. That meant two years in the army. It was an exciting test of my ability to function away from home. This was very late 1952. There was a war on in the Far East. My Uncle Sam decided that, being tall and strong, I would make good rifleman. After making me what he had proposed, he sent me to Korea to test my skills. They were sufficient to stay alive during the last few months leading to the truce. It was signed on July 27, 1953. I was sent to division headquarters on a mission that eludes my memory. But I did remember that I wanted to get out of the infantry company. The division newspaper beckoned, and the noncom in charge decided that I wrote well enough to join his staff. Besides, he needed someone with frontline experience. I became a cub reporter and, later, an official US Army correspondent. I began to read voraciously, starting with Ernie Pyle and Hemingway. I found my passion. The GI Bill allowed me to study, then give up journalism in favor of literature and the theater as a playwright and director. Circumstances in 1958 caused me to stop my pursuit of theater and to make a living for a family. I’ve never regretted that decision. A vacation visit to the Korean War Memorial in the year 2000 in Washington, D.C., awakened my desire to pick up the pen again. It started with minor poetry, one-act plays, short stories, and this novella. My protagonists are often soldiers, past , present, or future. However, I don’t write war stories. I only know how war can effect the minds of those who experienced it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new translation into modern American English directly from the original Russian manuscript of 24 of Tolstoy's short stories. This edition contains an Afterword by the translator, a timeline of Tolstoy's life and works, and a glossary of philosophic terminology used throughout Tolstoy's literature and philosophy. These 24 stories are his most profound philosophical narratives across his life, many of whom were unpublished in English until now. From the reflections of a billiard-marker in "Marker's Notes" to the tragic fate of Russian soldiers in "How Russian Soldiers Die," these sharp narratives into the "pity" of human life. Tolstoy's exploration of mortality and death in "Three Deaths" and "The Leap" provide thought-provoking reflections on the consequences of choices and actions. Additionally, stories like "The Blizzard" and "The Surat Coffeehouse" offer vivid portrayals of the transformative power of nature and unexpected human connections. Throughout his short stories, Tolstoy's profound observations and skillful storytelling captivate readers, inviting them to contemplate life from on of the century's greatest thinkers. Many of these short stories are distallations of his greatest works. 1854 - Uncle Zhdanov and Cavalier Chernov (Дяденька Жданов и кавалер Чернов) 1855 - How Russian Soldiers Die (Как умирают русские солдаты) 1855 - Marker's Notes (Записки маркёра) Historically translated under "Recollections of a Billiard-marker", but this is not faithful to the original 1856 - The Blizzard (Метель) 1856 - The Discharged (Разжалованный) 1859 - Three Deaths (Три смерти) 1860 - Excerpts from Stories of Village Life (Отрывки рассказов из деревенской жизни) 1861 - Holstomer (Холстомер) 1872 - The Prisoner of the Caucasus (Кавказский пленник) 1886 - The Leap (Прыжок) 1892 - The Story of an Aeronaut (Рассказ Аэронавта) 1893 - The Surat Coffeehouse (Суратская кофейная) 1894 - It Comes Dearly (Дорого стоит) 1895 - Françoise (Франсуаза) 1896 - Who Is Right?

Book excerpt: "Life is a vexatious trap; when a thinking man reaches maturity and attains to full consciousness he cannot help feeling that he is in a trap from which there is no escape."Ward No. Six (1892) Anton Chekhov (1860-1904) was a Russian physician, dramaturge and author who is often referred to as one of the seminal figures in the birth of early modernism in the theatre. He made no apologies for the difficulties he posed to the readers, insisting that the role of an artist was to ask questions, not to answer them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Edgar Award-winning author Dana Stabenow is best known for her Kate Shugak series of crime novels, but the unifying protagonist of almost all her writing, be it crime, fantasy, horror, or science fiction, is Alaska. This genre-spanning collection of sixteen short stories features familiar characters like Kate and Jim, Liam and Wy, and Bill and Moses, but also ranges farther afield than many readers will expect, leaping from modern-day Anchorage to twenty-second-century Mars to the fantasy kingdom of Mnemosynea. Remarkably disparate, but indisputably Stabenow, a writer whose fertile imagination is anything but predictable. Titles in this collection are 'Nooses Give', 'Conspiracy', 'Under the Influence', 'Wreck Rights', 'Cherchez la Femme', 'Siren Song', 'The Eyak Interpreter', 'Any Taint of Vice', 'On the Evidence', 'Missing, Presumed...', 'The Perfect Gift', 'Gold Fever', 'Cheechako', 'No Place Like Home', 'Justice is a Two-Edged Sword', and 'A Woman's Work'. Newly added in this edition, find 'Collected Essays' and 'Dana on Writing' as well.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nathaniel Hawthorne's 'The Complete Short Stories' is a collection of his finest works, showcasing his mastery of the short story format. Each story is intricately woven with themes of sin, guilt, and the complexities of human nature, reflecting the author's profound insight into the human condition. Hawthorne's writing style is characterized by his rich use of symbolism and allegory, adding layers of meaning to each narrative. Set against the backdrop of puritanical New England, his stories explore the dark corners of the human psyche, making them both thought-provoking and timeless. This collection serves as a testament to Hawthorne's enduring influence on American literature. Nathaniel Hawthorne's own life experiences, including his Puritan heritage and his fascination with the supernatural, greatly influenced his writing. His exploration of moral dilemmas and psychological conflicts can be traced back to his own struggles with guilt and sin. These personal experiences lend an authenticity and depth to his stories, making them resonate with readers on a profound level. I highly recommend 'The Complete Short Stories' to readers who appreciate thought-provoking literature that delves into the complexities of human nature. Hawthorne's timeless tales continue to captivate audiences with their profound themes and masterful storytelling.

Book excerpt: This carefully edited collection of "THE COMPLETE SHORT STORIES OF NATHANIEL HAWTHORNE (Illustrated)” has been designed and formatted to the highest digital standards and adjusted for readability on all devices. Excerpts: "I am afraid this ghost story will bear a very faded aspect when transferred to paper. Whatever effect it had on you, or whatever charm it retains in your memory, is, perhaps, to be attributed to the favorable circumstances under which it was originally told.” (The Ghost of Doctor Harris) American novelist and short story writer Nathaniel Hawthorne (1804-1864) published his first work, a novel titled Fanshawe, in 1828; he later tried to suppress it, feeling it was not equal to the standard of his later work. He published several short stories in various periodicals, which he collected in 1837 as Twice-Told Tales. Much of Hawthorne's writing centres on New England, many works featuring moral allegories with a Puritan inspiration. His fiction works are considered to be part of the Romantic movement and, more specifically, Dark romanticism. His themes often centre on the inherent evil and sin of humanity, and his works often have moral messages and deep psychological complexity.
