Product Description
This monumental collection celebrates the best short story fiction published in the Pushcart Prize editions from over the past three decades.
Forty-five stories were selected from over one thousand. As Booklist commented when the hardcover edition was published: "This peerless collection features past winners of the Pushcart Prize, the prestigious award that honors fiction published by independent publishing houses. Indeed, the table of contents read like a who's who of contemporary fiction with such authors as Tobias Wolfe, Cynthia Ozick, Andre Dubus, Edward P. Jones, Patricia Hampl, Ha Jin, and dozens more. Each of these stories represents an author working at the peak of his or her craft."
The Pushcart Prize series has consistently tracked the development of contemporary writing throughout much of recent literary history from the traditional to the experimental. All of these riches are collected in this unsurpassed eclectic gathering.
