Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some of your favorite characters have returned for your enjoyment. Benjamin has a problem or two. Lester again blunders the jobs he attempts. Familiar stories change from the familiar you know to the unexpected. It's what you can expect when you read Chuck's frequent twist and turns, even the biblical characters surprise us. The third volume makes fiction from true historical events. While they did happen no one can put the actual actions and words into the players on life's stage. However, creative non-fiction can put the reader in the room with the characters and perhaps understand why they are behaving as it says. Sorry to admit it, but some of our ancestors were not nice people and you may find it difficult to accept what they did to each other. But there is humor and fun too. As usual there are plenty of shorter stories for that moment of waiting an enough longer short stories to make waiting bearable. From the hardships of the old west or the deliberate destruction of a man's character or the bewilderment of getting caught with a hand in the cookie jar enjoy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chuck's first book, Short, Shorter and Shorter Stories was a finalist for book of the year, 2005. His second book, Osmis, the Cursed Egyptian Maiden, ."is a trip through history that makes history fun to read." wrote one reader. Now, he has collected a second volume of short stories to rival the first book. Again we have writing contest winners among the many stories as well as Benjamin, the hard luck juvenile. Human-interest tales, crime, war and fairy tales are set into a variety of numerical groups and time frames. There are stories for some of the commandments, for each season, for each month, the days of the week, even a few for a minute of time. As in the first book the stories are intended for the reader with a little time to kill in the doctor's waiting room, the airport, in the car waiting for the kids to finish practice or get out of school or just to spend some leisure time. Not to give plots away, but just imagine a complete story in four sentences, with a reversed ending you didn't expect. Or being so familiar with the characters in a story that you never thought it could end differently, but it does. Be prepared to enjoy the unexpected, convoluted endings to some stories, then, when you think you know what's coming...No. I'm not going to spoil it for you.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Once again, I bring the reader my favorite character, Benjamin, doing the usual and getting himself into trouble. Not only does he create his own problems but with other folks help, he manages to involve them in tithe situations. In his unique way he lets us see some of our own problems. There are stories from the past and stories of the future. There are stories of a devious nature and those that happen because of the opportunity of the moment.Some stories can only have the ending created by the perpetrator. Yet, can't an unexpected outcome occur to save the victim or stymie the rascal during or after the incident? Think about this, haven't you thought about doing something that is illegal, or shady like getting even or outfoxing your spouse, or your boss or even God? Hasn't each of us experienced the bone chilling fear of the unknown deliberately such as a bungee jump or accidentally skidding on an icy road into oncoming traffic? You may find such stories in this edition of Short, Shorter and Shorter Stories. I believe you'll enjoy finding out for yourself.

Book excerpt: A new collection of short stories from the woman Rick Moody has called "the best prose stylist in America" Her stories may be literal one-liners: the entirety of "Bloomington" reads, "Now that I have been here for a little while, I can say with confidence that I have never been here before." Or they may be lengthier investigations of the havoc wreaked by the most mundane disruptions to routine: in "A Small Story About a Small Box of Chocolates," a professor receives a gift of thirty-two small chocolates and is paralyzed by the multitude of options she imagines for their consumption. The stories may appear in the form of letters of complaint; they may be extracted from Flaubert's correspondence; or they may be inspired by the author's own dreams, or the dreams of friends. What does not vary throughout Can't and Won't, Lydia Davis's fifth collection of stories, is the power of her finely honed prose. Davis is sharply observant; she is wry or witty or poignant. Above all, she is refreshing. Davis writes with bracing candor and sly humor about the quotidian, revealing the mysterious, the foreign, the alienating, and the pleasurable within the predictable patterns of daily life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ranging in scope from lengthy novellas to fables and folktales only a few pages long, Leo Tolstoy’s short fiction provides a marvelous opportunity to become closely acquainted with Russia’s great novelist. Volume 2 of the Collected Shorter Fiction reveals how Tolstoy’s growing spiritual preoccupations flowered into a series of extraordinary late masterpieces that equal anything in the earlier novels for intensity and power. Readers of The Death of Iván Ilých, The Kreutzer Sonata, Father Sergius, Master and Man, and Hadji Murád will recognize the brilliant novelist now transfigured by his passionate quest for salvation and forgiveness. Aylmer and Louise Maude’s classic translations are supplemented by new translations by Nigel J. Cooper of six stories, including two that have never before appeared in English.
