FOURTH PRINTING
Great short stories have been called "masterpieces in miniature," and here, carefully selected for your pleasure by the Editors of The Reader's Digest, are more than seventy that are among the finest examples of the storyteller's art. Many of the stories are American and British, but the distinguished authors of sixteen other nations are also represented.
The result is a rich variety of backgrounds and points of view -- all brought vividly to life by that concern for the human condition only great writers can evoke.
The range of mood and subject matter of these stories is truly as wide as life itself -- from th marvelous humor of Thurber's The Secret Life of Walter Mitty to the wisdom of Tolstoy's God Sees the Truth, But Waits; from the lovely Canadian warmth of Gabrielle Roy's Luzina Takes a Holiday to the high African drama of Hemingway's The Snows of Kilimanjaro. All the stories are arranged in a sequence designed to achieve an interesting variety and contrast.
