5.0 out of 5 stars Delightful!, Dec 20 2011
By Jwilly - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: 30/30: Thirty American Stories from the Last Thirty Years (Penguin Academics Series) (Paperback)
I love short stories, absolutely love them. And this collection is a great example of the American short story and how wonderful they can be. The themes of a few of the stories may be slightly controversial, or you may feel uncomfortable by them, but the fact that the ypush boundaries is why I like them. There is not a story in this collection that is not worth reading. Highly recommended if you enjoy good literature. I promise. No, I pinky swear that if you like fiction of any sort that you'll enjoy this. I dare you to try it...
